hypertext problem

[Jo Watkiss]

I am trying to create a link to a specific page in a pdf file, but
cannot get the link to go to the correct page.  

 

Both source and destination files are created in FrameMaker. 

The destination file is a frame book file, that is distilled to a single
pdf file.  

Each frame file re-starts page numbering at page 1.  (1-1, 1-2, ... 2-1,
2-2, 2-3 ... 3-1, 3-2 etc).  The PDF pages are simply numbered from 1
onwards.

 

If I set a link to go to page 27, it goes to 2-27, which is actually
page 45.  This is the first chapter that has 27 pages.

 

I have tried using all the following syntaxes:

gotopage filename:pagenumber

openpage filename:pagenumber

openlink filename:pagenumber

 

I would prefer not to put the links in manually in the pdf (there are
lots of them).

Adding a linkname marker in the destination document works, but is not
feasible because it is a legacy document.

 

Any suggestions?
