With this method, I set the markers to have names I can figure out without resorting to investigating tons of destinations in Acrobat Pro. Also, I can avoid creating named destinations for everything, which blows up the size of the PDF files.

There are a couple of snags when PDFs are created from books with multiple chapters, each with their own named destinations, but this can be made to work.
