Dear Roosters and Chickens.

I wish for a new feature in the Adobe reader that will prove a very attractive indeed and it will prove that the Chicken came before the egg.

When I am reading a PDF document and I read so many of those long ones with hundreds or even thousand pages long sometimes I need to go back a number of pages to view a diagram or a graph or a picture, and then I have to scroll back, therefore it would be nice if I am able to click on something that allows me to view that previous page without having to scroll back and forth time and again.

This feature could still be more sophisticated by supplying a list where I mark number pages and click on viewing one when I need to.

So you see that will be very helpful and thank you in advance.

Still improving on the original idea, boy those brains never stop working, so how about an accompanying view document, (no contents, indexes or anything, just successive views), so open one document and open a sister document which contains the diagrams, and as you scroll in the main document and read the other document synchronizes its scrolls, say this 100 pages section describes a design scenario accordingly the other document scroll one page to the diagram of the scenario or steps through two or three progression diagrams.

I know there is a synchronization button to sync up the page you are on the the contents on the left, but this is different.

Truly readers will thank you for this feature.

In Acrobat Reader you can add comments and use the comments for the navigation.

In Adobe Acrobat you can use bookmarks.

Daaa I already Knew that and I did add comments before but that is a tedious process, you have to save the PDF, and that is not desirable specially when the PDF is a manufacturer issued PDF, also it restricts your screen view by showing a complex panel on the right.

Another thought, if you can allow references to diagrams and pictures within the text to be highlighted and when clicked upon they display those diagrams or pictures or whatever you can (system analyse) with this nice feature.

This is possible with Adobe Acrobat, not Acrobat Reader.
