Anyone aware of a pdf reader with tab support that can open a different link/page of the same file in a different tab, like a web browser does?

I thought Foxit can only open different tabs for different files, but not different pages/links from the same file?
I'm gonna have to check this out when I get home. Thanks

That's what I use it for. I don't know about different pages/links tho.

It isn't exactly what you want, but Evince (Ubuntu's default PDF reader) does let you open extra copies of a PDF file. Just go to File›Open a Copy, or press Ctrl+N. It helps me quite often.
