FrameMaker named destinations (used by bookmarks/links) point to the 
horizontal/vertical location of the target on the page, not just to the 
page itself. This is recommended in almost all cases.
No way to control this from FrameMaker or Acrobat (other than setting the 
initial page view in Acrobat to Single Page + Fit Page).

[For use in exceptional cases: a function in my FrameMaker-to-Acrobat 
TimeSavers add-on optionally adjusts all automatically-generated named 
destinations; no change is necessary in source FM files, all 
bookmarks/links are affected]
