PDF Page Link
Have you ever wanted to browse directly to a page in a PDF file? This map will show you how in Windows and in a mind map. In this example I am using Mindjet MindManager where the syntax for the shortcut does not work. I list the current workaround then propose a new feature for MindManager.
Desired syntax to create a link to a specific page in a PDF file.
You can create a shortcut in windows that will open a pdf file and display a specific page. The syntax for that shortcut is shown below.Desktop shortcut properties.Target:"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat Reader DC\Reader\AcroRd32.exe" /A "page=121=OpenActions" "D:\Users\AdvCivil\Downloads\FDOT\Publications\CADD Manual\CADDManual2015a.pdf"
Link to specific page in pdf in MindManager Workaround
trying to use command line syntax directly in the link and mindmanager puts a prefix in the link that I cannot get rid of.Workaround. Create a desktop shortcut with the correct syntax then link that desktop shortcut to the topic in mindmanager.
