Thanks Steve.

We've also tried another option which is to create proper links in Word and
when exported to PDF we get similar results but the proviso is to make sure
the user is in scroll view.

We have axesPDF. Are you saying that if we do it the way you suggest the
reading will start from that point?

Thanks,
Ilana
