Guys, Sorry to repost this but do the rest of you manage to hyperlink to locations in other documents successfully, this is a small annoyance which I would really like to solve.

Best Regards -- Nigel

Hi, I am trying to get a group of documents to link together. The references to the other document work but the hyperlinks only open the document on the first page.

What am I doing wrong?

The linktest1 has links to testdoc2. For those trying them you may need to change the font part since my fonts are non standard (subject of other problems).

Key lines from testdoc1.tex are \useexternaldocument[testdoc][testdoc2][This document is a test link] \goto{contents}[testdoc::contents]

And key lines from testdoc2.tex are \page[yes] \section[contents]{Contents List}

I made a small test file

\setupoutput[pdftex] \pdfcompresslevel=0

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext

\chapter[one]{One}

\goto {document} [testtest::]

\goto {chapter 2} [testtest::two]

\chapter[two]{Two}

nothing here

\stoptext

(and its mirror testtest.tex)

Now, somehow this works in acrobat 5 but not in acrobat 6! Creating a link in acrobat 6 manually also does not work. Looks like a bug in acrobat 6, but before i look into it in more detail i want confirmation from other users

I confirm that the problem does appear to be Acrobat which at 4.05 does the expected actions and at 6 does not. I no longer have 5 to test.

(an option is to cross link docs by page number)

I haven't tried cross linking by page numbers because I do not think I know how to do it! Thanks very much. Nigel
