Hyperlink to a page

[romanobstuder]

Hi all

I am trying to link all my images in a document.

If I recognize the filename and it is a logo (only a limited logos are present) I link to the URL

All others must link to a given page number.

The first part works. But I can not figure out how to make the link to a page...

     case "cat 22m95y v1.eps":       

            var myHyperLinkeFrame = myFrame.parent.textFrames.add(myLabelLayer2, undefined, undefined,{geometricBounds : myGreyBoxBounds});

            myHyperlinkURL = myDocument.hyperlinkURLDestinations.add("www.catfootwear.com");

            myHyperlinkSource = myDocument.hyperlinkPageItemSources.add(myHyperLinkeFrame);

            myHyperlink=myDocument.hyperlinks.add(myHyperlinkSource,myHyperlinkURL );

            myHyperlink.visible=true;                                 

    break;

    default:

            $.writeln ("myImageJumperPage " + myImageJumperPage );

            $.writeln ("myImageJumperPage " + Number (myImageJumperPage) );

            var bla = Number (myImageJumperPage) ;

            $.writeln ("bla " + bla);

            var myHyperLinkeFrame = myFrame.parent.textFrames.add(myLabelLayer2, undefined, undefined,{geometricBounds : myGreyBoxBounds});

            myHyperlinkPage = myDocument.hyperlinkPageDestinations.add();

            myHyperlinkPage.destinationPage.pageNumber = myImageJumperPage;

            myHyperlinkSource = myDocument.hyperlinkPageItemSources.add(myHyperLinkeFrame);

            myHyperlink=myDocument.hyperlinks.add(myHyperlinkSource, myHyperlinkPage);

            myHyperlink.visible=true;   

       }

Any hins appreciated

should add

            myHyperlinkPage.destinationPage.pageNumber = myImageJumperPage;

this is where things go wrong...

[romanobstuder]

myHyperlinkPage.destinationPage = "2";

I also tried this but again no go

Hi,

All others must link to a given page number.

it expects a whole reference.

For example:

myHyperlinkPage.destinationPage = app.activeDocument.pages.item(0)

[romanobstuder]

OK I get it the reference to a page does not work based on a number as in go to page 10

Needed to create the reference in "page" terms first.

            var destPage = myDocument.pages.itemByName(myImageJumperPage.toString());

This line changes (type cast) the number to a string, then finds the page with that (String)Name and creates a reference.

I guess this could be coded in a more direct way, but I am happy.

The code does the job

Thanks for your help Hans
