Philip,
you have an old version of pdfopen. I don't know what TeX
distribution you are using, but the new and (*cough*) improved version
does not have that option.
When I updated and substantially rewrote the program I decided to
remove that "option" since it seemed redundant to me, at least in the
context of the functionality of the new version.
Cheers.
Jim
