New issue 64309 by howard.loo: Implement "PDF Open Parameters" in PDF
Renderer
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=64309
Chrome Version : 9.0.587.0 (Official Build 66374) dev
URLs (if applicable) :
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf#view=FitH
Other browsers tested:
Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
Safari 5: OK (with Acrobat Reader plugin)
Firefox 3.x: OK (with Acrobat Reader plugin)
IE 7/8: OK (with Acrobat Reader plugin)
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Using an instance of Chrome that is configured to open PDFs with the
Chrome PDF Renderer instead of Adobe Acrobat Reader, go to
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf#view=FitH
2. In any browser using Acrobat Reader to open PDFs (including Chrome),
because "#view=FitH" is appended to the URL, the PDF will initially be
opened to fit horizontally.
What is the expected result?
The PDF open parameter appended to the URL should affect the way that the
PDF opens.
The specification
What happens instead?
The PDF open parameter is ignored.
Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if
possible.
This is a more of a feature request than a bug. Acrobat Reader
implements "PDF Open Parameters" as described in this specification:
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf
For our web applications, the most important parameters are view, toolbar,
and zoom.
It would be awesome if the Chrome PDF Renderer implemented the
specification, including when the PDF is embedded in the page (see
http://blogs.adobe.com/pdfdevjunkie/2007/08/using_the_html_embed_tag_to_di.html).

It's very important for us. We need "scrollbar", "toolbar" and "navpanes"
parameters too. Thank's for help!

Parameters" in PDF Renderer

(No comment was entered for this change.)
I am looking for the #page= parameter.
Yes view parameter
It would appear that the page and zoom parameters are now supported, so why
not others? I would vote for the search feature to be implemented the same
as Adobe's functionality, as it would be very useful. Especially combining
a search and page parameter.
