Does Adobe reader for Android support intent extra data to specify a page number or search term.  I need to be able to open a PDF file to specific page or pass a search term and display results.  Can I do this with reader for Android?

Android version is 6.0.1. The device is a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge+. I'm hoping to be able to do something like the code below.  Does reader for Android have a putExtra() parameter name for opening to a specific page or for searching for a specific term.

Intent intent = new Intent( Intent.ACTION_VIEW );
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile("pdf_file"), "application/pdf");
intent.putExtra( "PAGE_NUMBER", "10" );
startActivity( intent );
or
Intent intent = new Intent( this, MyActivity.class );
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.fromFile("pdf_file"), "application/pdf");
intent.putExtra( "SEARCH_TERM", "signal 7" );
startActivity( intent );

thanks,

Hi Philipc32183825,

Sadly, the feature is not yet supported by the application.

So, not much can be done about it.

You may request for the same by filling the form in the link below:

Already submitted feature request.  Being that this is a relatively easy thing to code I would have to assume that it is intentionally ( no pun intended ) ( or there either ) not supported.
