How do you link HTML to inside pages on a PDF?

[ag5t]

I looked a pdfzone.com and tried to figure out a way to set up a link from an HTML file to one of the inside pages of a PDF file. The original document is in Word and I use Acrobat 5 to make pdf files. First it says to create a postscript file - I can't find anything on the Word toolbar that says how to save the file as postscript. Pdfzone also says to read about PDFMARK.PDF on the Acrobat help folder. I have looked through the whole help file and there is nothing about PDFMARK.PDF anywhere. I cannot afford the $300 plug in programs that make links for you. Is there any easier way? Couldn't you just set up a hyperlink that tells the browser to jump to a certain page or paragraph in the pdf file? I can use any help on this one. I don't know what "EndSetup" means either. Thanks.

From my personal experience, it is better to create several small documents (one page each) than to attempt one large document and have some HTTP function call on only one page. What you are attempting might be possible in the newer versions of Acrobat but there may be issues with a web server you need to consider. What kind of strain will be placed on a server if 2000 people all want one page from a 20-page 6Mb PDF - - instead of 2000 people that want one page from 20 separate PDF files, each only 300Kb? If this is possible, the server would need to open the 6Mb file on each request, even if it was only dishing out one page.

I would just make many small PDFs to be safe.
