Deleting pages -> dependent actions?

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,

When using DeletePages method I understand that the pages are not really deleted but removed from their parent pages dictionary so that they will no longer appear. Fine!
But what happens to other objects referring those pages? 
My current problem was that there was an OpenAction destination that pointed to page 1. Then I deleted page 1 and saved the pdf. Now Adobe Reader calls me that the documents page tree has a problem.

So when deleting a page I should also adjust an OpenAction destination if it is available. But what other points should I check? 
- named destinations
- outlines
- ... ???
Any further points?

Has someone already done a code that checks for object dependency and would like to share?

best regards,
Ulrich
