Dear all,
under Windows 7, Emacs 24.2 and orgmode 7.9.4 I would like to have a
hyperlink to an external pdf. The pdf should be opened by a
software called PDVXchange viewer /at a certain page/.
The command on the command line in windows is:
PDFXCview /A page=10 filename.pdf
This works on the command line: The pdf is opened on page 10. But how do I
implement that in orgmode? Which lines to add to my .emacs file?
I found an example for evince here:
http://emacswiki.org/emacs/OrgMode
#+begin_source lisp
(delete '("\\.pdf\\'" . default) org-file-apps)
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" . "evince \"%s\" -p
%1"))
#+end_source
I tried in vain to adapt it:
#+begin_source lisp
(delete '("\\.pdf\\'" . default) org-file-apps)
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'"
. "PDFXCview /A 'page'=%1 \"%s\" "))
#+end_source
The hyperlink in org looks like this:
[[file:filename.pdf::10][link to my file]]
Could anybody provide a working solution? Emacs simply not reacts
with my adaption.
Thank you!
Alexander

for me the following works under Win7:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps
'("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" .
"\"C:/Program Files (x86)/Adobe/Acrobat 10.0/Acrobat/Acrobat.exe\"
/A page=%1 %s")
#+end_src
(Without line break in the string)
I think Win7 chokes on single quotes.

Yes, it did help indeed, thank you very much!
For the record:
#+begin_src emacs-lisp
(add-to-list 'org-file-apps
'("\\.pdf::\\([0-9]+\\)\\'" . "\"C:/Program Files/Tracker Software/PDF
Viewer/PDFXCview.exe\" /A page=%1 %s"))
#+end_src

(add-to-list 'org-file-apps '("\\.\\(doc\\|docx\\|pdf\\|dct\\)$" . system))
works for me, if the viewer is set in the system options.
