Plug-in for Extracting PDF Link Properties/Actions

I have a large PDF document, over 900 pages, with a large number of links throughout the document (~1,000) for:

  1. Page View links; and
  2. Web Page reference links.

Is there plugin available to extract a list of these links, along with their properties/actions, for the following reason(s):

  1. verify that a link has an action associated with it (i.e. Go to a page view, Open a web page, etc.); and/or
  2. verify that a link is connected to the correct page view, within the document.

Example:  My cover page currently has 70 "page view" links. I would like to efficiently see what pages those links are linked to, without having to view each individual link and its properties. This would quickly show me links that have no actions and allow me to verify my links are correctly linked to their designated page views.

Check out AutoBookmark: AutoBookmark™ Plug-in for Adobe® Acrobat® - Create and Manage PDF Bookmarks, Links, Table of Contents and Destinations

It's my favorite 3rd-party plug-in.

What are your exact needs? I could probably develop for you a custom-made tool that does what you need, for a much lower price than that.

The Acrobat SDK is a tool for developers. They can use it to make plug-ins. So we're not really the right people to ask about what is on sale made by others.
