asked on

Can vba automation be used to view a subset of pages in the same PDF document (ie to hide irrelevant blocks of pages)?

My excel 2010 piece uses vba to open a PDF file and display the page with a defined page number.

Is it possible to HIDE some pages in a document of (say) 100 pages?
For example, if I wish to display pages 40-50, and could HIDE pages 1-39 and 51-100, then the reader could not scroll onto irrelevant pages. However, for another consultation, I would wish to pick another block of pages to read, and hence a different block of pages to hide.

Can this be done, perhaps through Layers? If so, would those layers be definable dynamically, or would they have to be created when the PDF file is created?

Thanks,
Kelvin
