Setting the zoom size of a PDF

[Guest]

Hi,
I'm using cfheader and cfcontent to open a PDF file for users to view.

<cfheader name="Content-Disposition" value="inline; filename=filename">
<cfcontent type="application/pdf" file="filename" deletefile="No">

I'm just wondering is there any way to set the zoom percent of the document when it opens in Acrobat?
Thanks,

Where is your PDF coming from? Do you need to dynamcially change the zoom level? I think acrobat defaults to whatever zoom level you last saved the document in. If you do need to dynamically change that level you might be able to do something like that leveraging the Java iText library (which you should already have installed if you are running CFMX - I think its what CF uses for <cfdocument>).

Of course, I've never actually used iText (just read about it) so take that advice with a grain of skepticism.

Hi Spatz,

You can go for the <cfdocument> tag which has the 'scale' attribute for zooming the pdf..

actually that "zooms" the content *before* it gets stuffed into the PDF.

i know you can add stuff to the url & the reader will interpret it:

http://bangkok/testCF/iText/registered.pdf#zoom=25?page=5

will cause the acrobat reader to open the registered.pdf at page 5 & a zoom
factor of 25%. not exactly sure how you'd do it via cfheader/cfcontent. maybe
add it to the filename parameter?
