I’m wondering you’d consider the following changes:
Add a page parameter, linking to a specific page.
x-devonthink-item://XYZ-123?page=234
Add a search parameter, linking to the first occurance of a string.
x-devonthink-item://XYZ-123?search=The%20applesauce
The purpose of these changes is to allow deep linking into documents, primarily PDFs. This would facilitate the citation of ancillary documents.
Thank you for reading my input.
Thanks for the suggestion, the next beta will support both parameters.

Fantastic! Thanks!
I’m very impressed with both your software and your customer service!
There will be also a “Copy Page Link” contextual menu command to easily create references to PDF pages.
this is awesome! thank you!

Does the “?page” parameter always consider the first page as “?page=0” ? For a document-oriented URL it would seem that the first page should be “?page=1”
Is “?search=” implemented?
The index is zero-based and search is implemented.

cgrunenberg:
search is implemented
Hmmm…I’ve tried several PDFs and don’t seem to get results with ?search=
You’re right, it does not work as expected as the search is case sensitive in case of PDF documents but shouldn’t be. V2.0.2 will fix this.
