INITIAL_PAGE Initial page to display (numeric value). This setting is ignored if a valid bookmark is specified in the INITIAL_BOOKMARK setting as well. The default value is 1.
INITIAL_ROTATE Initial page rotation. It can be either 0, 90, 180 or 270. The default value is 0.

Using initial settings for HTML5 documents

You may pass initial settings to HTML5 documents in the document viewer URL. The URL syntax is:

docviewer.html#DocURL[?InitParams][@InitBookmark]

The meanings of various URL parts are as follows:

  • DocURL -  the URL of the document to load;

  • InitParams - initial parameters list represented as a usual URL parameters list like this:

    INITIAL_VIEW=page&INITIAL_PAGE=3
     

  • InitBookmark - the bookmark to scroll the document to.

Examples of document viewer URLs:

URL without initial parameters: http://mysite.com/docviewer.html#doc.xml

URL with a bookmark parameter: http://mysite.com/docviewer.html#doc.xml@Chapter1

URL with initial parameters: http://mysite.com/docviewer.html#doc.xml?INITIAL_VIEW=page&INITIAL_PAGE=3

URL with initial parameters and a bookmark parameter: http://mysite.com/docviewer.html#doc.xml?INITIAL_VIEW=page&INITIAL_ROTATE=180@Chapter1
