6.5.1.5. Using Absolute / Relative Addressing
When creating stamps that execute an open file or GoTo remote page action
it is possible to specify whether to use absolute or relative file addresses.
Absolute Addresses
Absolute Addresses are best used when it's likely that the stamped document
may need to be moved or copied to a different location in the file system,
without any target files moving in relation.
By default, browsing to the target file using the Open File dialog produces an
absolute address i.e. C:\target.pdf
Relative Addresses
Relative Addresses are most appropriate for PDFs published to CDs/DVDs or
when the entire file system is copied and must remain relative to the source.
Relative addresses describe the path to a file, relative to the source PDF.
