Hey!

You can use the [setCurrentPage](https://pdfjs.express/api/Core.DocumentViewer.html#setCurrentPage__anchor) API for this.

```javascript
WebViewer(...).then(instance => {

  const { documentViewer } = instance.Core;

   documentViewer.addEventListener('documentLoaded', () => {
       documentViewer.setCurrentPage(10)
   })

})

```

Thanks,  
Logan
