Hi,
I am generating interactive pdfs from within Indesign CS and have run into
the problem that I can't define the button to open external pdfs that then
open in Acrobat Reader in a new window - so far Indesign just sets it
to "users default".
As my main pdf that contains all the buttons is my "menu" which then links
to a whole bunch of other externally located single pdfs on a CD I want a
user to click on the buttons and the get "external" pdfs to always open in
a "new window" without closing the "menu". By manually linking in Acrobat
you can define this at the time of making the link. (users default, existing
window or new window)
I have gone over the Acrobat Pro 7 dictionairy but not been able to find any
objects for this option.
I have two possibilities here either I manually relink all 360 buttons and
set this preference by hand. (This would take approx 25 seconds per link ->
2.5 hours). Or better be able to write a script that changes any link option
to an external pdf to open automatically in a new window. Is this possible
from Acrobat or even Indesign CS? If so what is the object name and command
for it in either? Any ideas would help.
Best, Patrik
