acrobat reader does not open a pdf

acrobat reader does not open a pdf

[Olivier TURLIER]

Hi everybody,

Acrobat reader 7 (linux) cannot open "doc-test-gobck.pdf"

I usually include external documentation (catalogs, etc.) as a clickable
link which open another doc. ("parent-doc-test.{tex,pdf}" -->
"doc-test-gobck.{tex,pdf}")

On those external doc, I put buttons for returning to the parent doc. I
was making this thru variables for easy creation, and moreover for
multiple page inserting.

But now (context version: 2007.04.17) acrobat (linux/ubuntu feisty &
acrobat reader 8 win xp) refuse to work (kpdf does !)

Have you a better approach (for making those "sons" docs)?
TIA for any answer

Thanks a lot Luigi, it's working fine now.


For inserting external doc, I was doing 
\getfiguredimensions[external-doc]
\dorecurse{\noffigurepages}{
\externalfigure
    [external-doc]
    [width=1\textwidth,height=1\textheight,offset=-1cm]
    [page=\recurselevel]}

And page numbering, via 
\setuppagenumbering[location=,state=stop]
\setupheadertexts [\setups{chapter-toc}] 
\startsetups[chapter-toc]
    \rlap{\hspace{}}
    \hfill
    \llap{\pagenumber\space/\space\lastpage}
\stopsetups

was working

Now, this "old" inserting code is no more working : I get a blank page. 
It does'nt matter, as long as this one works (partially):
\copypages[external-doc][width=1.1\textwidth,height=1\textheight] 

But i loose page numbers. (only get "\lastpage")

How can I achieve this ?

TIA for any answer

It's not a true solution, because you have now a pdf with a
bigger size.
I had a similar problem sometime ago, and it's possible
that it will be fixed in a next telease.

% yy!!
\setlayer
    [reference]
    [x=.5\paperwidth, y=2mm, location=c]
    {\ttxx "\jobname" \textbar \currentdate [dd,/,mm,/,yy]\ à
\currenttime\ }

BTW: nice trick

Best wishes,  Peter
