Controlling PDFs in Player Object on Mac

Using MC 2.5 on Mac OSX, I can show a multi-page PDF file in a player
object.  But I can't figure out how to write a script that will
control what page is showing.

For the several example PDF files I've tried, the player's timeScale
is 600 and its duration seems to be something like 75 times (z-1)
where z is the number of pages in the PDF.  But "set the currentTime
of player 1 to (n-1)*75" does not consistently cause page n to be
shown.

Does someone know how to do this, or where I can learn how to do this?

Many thanks.
