Remote Go-To Actions
A
remote go-to action
is similar to an ordinary go-to action but jumps to a desti-
nation in another PDF file instead of the current file. Table 8.50 shows the action
dictionary entries specific to this type of action.
Note:
Remote go-to actions cannot be used with embedded files; see “Embedded Go-
To Actions” on page 655”.

The type of action that this dictionary describes; must be
GoToR
for a remote go-to action.

(Required)
The destination to jump to (see Section 8.2.1, “Destinations”). If
the value is an array defining an explicit destination (as described under
“Explicit Destinations” on page 582), its first element must be a page number
within the remote document rather than an indirect reference to a page ob-
ject in the current document. The first page is numbered 0.
(Optional; PDF 1.2)
A flag specifying whether to open the destination docu-
ment in a new window. If this flag is
false
, the destination document replaces
the current document in the same window. If this entry is absent, the viewer
application should behave in accordance with the current user preference.

Embedded Go-To Actions
An
embedded go-to action (PDF 1.6)
is similar to a remote go-to action but allows
jumping to or from a PDF file that is embedded in another PDF file (see “Embed-
ded File Streams” on page 184). Embedded files may be associated with file at-
tachment annotations (see “File Attachment Annotations” on page 637) or with
entries in the
EmbeddedFiles
name tree (see Section 3.6.3, “Name Dictionary”).
Embedded files may in turn contain embedded files. Table 8.51 shows the action
dictionary entries specific to embedded go-to actions.
