Hello,

I'm wanting to advance my page to the next one but with a slight difference than just a simple,

this.pageNum++;

I know it is possible to advance page focus to a specific area on a page with the pre-defined options inside acrobat I was just wondering if it was possible to do it with JavaScript?

I've looked though the api document as well as a good google but I can only find examples of what I already know mentioned above.

I want to advance the page by 1 and set the focus to 50% or more down that page so that you see the second half of the page.

As always;

Any help is much appreciated

Thank you in advance.

The best way to do that, IMO, is to create a Named Destination at the location, zoom level, etc. that you want to use and then use this code to go to it (use the actual destination name as the parameter, of course):

this.gotoNamedDest("MyDestination1");

Do I still need a plug-in for creating Named Destinations? Or has that changed, the answers I've found about it are quite old '09 and before.

It's a built-in feature of Acrobat (maybe only Acrobat Pro, though).
