I have a confluence page with several large PDF files attached to it and I want to open for viewing specific pages of the PDF files based on TOC entries
we have developed extensive user documentation (400+ pages and 100+ page pdf documents) and installation guides (5 pdf documents @ 40+ pages each) for our products and I would like to be able to get to specific content in these documents directly from a confluence page with a single click (instead of opening the PDF, finding the TOC, finding the topic of interest and following the TOC link to the appropriate page). I can link to the whole documents and open them easily but linking to specific content in these documents would be an ease of use enhancement.
Unfortunately I think this is impossible. I am looking around but the only way to do this in the past has been to rely on a Adobe Reader syntax of #page=4
appended to the PDF hosted via a webserver. This is not the way confluence is rendering PDFs so even if that was possible still ( don't think it works anymore, perhaps Adobe deprecated it?) Confluence wouldn't be able to access it.
Someone else asked this question and received no answer – https://answers.atlassian.com/questions/214112
yeah I had seen the adobe pdf viewer command syntax before and figured that was not going to help and I did read the excel/ppt macros so I was hoping that there would be a similar pdf option but no love there. thanks for the responses
