I have a filemaker database that I need to be able to link records and all associated data (including container field data) to various points placed on a large PDF image, and then make that data appear via instant web publishing when someone clicks on the marker for that area on the PDF. For example the PDF may be an image of a car, and then I would have various close up images of issues with the car and descriptions of those images as records in the database. I would then want to drop points on the base PDF image and when you clicked on those points be able to see the close up images and other data related to those images.

I'm being told this is too much for IWP because:

  1. I need to place the markers outside filemaker via PDF annotation
  2. Filemaker IWP can't handle the number of markers that may be necessary (it could be up to 1,000 on an E sized image.

Does anyone have a work around or explanation why this is a problem?
