Can I create a link to specific pages of a PDF document?

Greetings! We direct readers to our multipage magazine PDF in Dropbox. We highlight specific articles in our Constant Contact emails and would like to link them directly to specific pages. Of course, now readers can only go to the first page and scroll through the PDF. I noticed a few similar requests in the Community but they seem to be about 2 or more years old. Is there a way to direct viewers to a specific page? I would expect most readers to use standard browsers and phones. Thank you!

     I have tried ?raw=1#page=15 (for example) and a number of other approaches all unsuccessfully. This would be a really useful feature for dropbox. I definitely need it.

    Hey ThriveWebmaster, thanks for taking the time to post to the Dropbox Community!

     

    At the moment, there's no way to do this with Dropbox shared links.

     

    I will, however, pass this along to our team as feedback/feature request, so thanks for this.

     

    If you have any questions, let us know.
