Creating a bookmark

Hi,
Hope this e-mail finds you well.
How do you create a bookmark in an existing Acrobat 9 Pro document?
Thanks!

Click the "New bookmark" button in the bookmarks panel.
Or, select "New Bookmark" from the options menu in the bookmarks panel. (Or hit CMD+B.)

  • Creating adobe bookmarks in Pages

    Maybe I am missing something simple.
    Can I create a document in Pages that when I export it to a PDF document will have automatically created PDF bookmarks. I can do it in inDesign, MS Word, and Open Office.
    Can I do it in Pages? If so, how?

    You need to make sure the link is a hyperlink before exporting to PDF.

    Hello,
    '''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode|Firefox Safe Mode]] is a troubleshooting mode that temporarily turns off hardware acceleration, resets some settings, and disables add-ons (extensions and themes).
    If Firefox is open, you can restart in Firefox Safe Mode from the Help menu:
    *In Firefox 29.0 and above, click the menu button [[Image:New Fx Menu]], click Help [[Image:Help-29]] and select ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    *In previous Firefox versions, click on the Firefox button at the top left of the Firefox window and click on ''Help'' (or click on ''Help'' in the Menu bar, if you don't have a Firefox button) then click on ''Restart with Add-ons Disabled''.
    If Firefox is not running, you can start Firefox in Safe Mode as follows:
    * On Windows: Hold the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * On Mac: Hold the '''option''' key while starting Firefox.
    * On Linux: Quit Firefox, go to your Terminal and run ''firefox -safe-mode'' <br>(you may need to specify the Firefox installation path e.g. /usr/lib/firefox)
    When the Firefox Safe Mode window appears, select "Start in Safe Mode".

    '''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, theme, or hardware acceleration. Please follow the steps in the [[Troubleshoot extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]] article to find the cause.

  • How do I create a bookmark in two different pdfs?

    How do I create a bookmark in two different pdfs

    Provided you only want to go one way, you can change a bookmark to fire the "open a file" action. I 'm not sure you entirely understand the terminology though - bookmarks in a PDF file appear on the left side panel and usually take you to a defined page in the current document. They are not part of the page and so don't change as you move through the file. Links are regions on a particular page that act as click points, and can do pretty much anything (move to a different page, open a file, etc.). Although you can use bookmarks to do something other than switch pages, it's very rare to do so and won't necessarily be supported by third-party software (or obvious to your users).
    If you want to create a bookmark to another document, and both files are going to be distributed together (in the same folder) then you can create a new bookmark (doesn't matter where in the source file you are..) then select it and from the options menu choose Properties. Switch to the Actions tab and delete the "go to a page" entry, then from the dropdown list choose "Open a file" and browse to your destination document.
    If your destination file is an attachment to your source file, you should use the "Go to page view" action, and when the tiny dialog box appears you should open the attachment, then click the OK button.

  • How to create a bookmark with action to open a file

    Hi all,
    I'm a newbie in javascripting for Adobe Acrobat (I'm running on Acrobat Professional 8) so please don't kill me for my question.
    I want to run a batch sequence to create a bookmark which opens a specific file in lots of pdf files. The way I'm following is:
    1. To create a batch sequence to run a javascript on selected pdf files.
    2. I've tried several ways of writing the script:
    2.1.
    var myRoot = this.bookmarkRoot;
    myRoot.createChild("Index");
    var Index = myRoot.children[0];
    Index.setAction("app.openDoc('/relative path to the file.pdf');");
    2.2.
    var myRoot = this.bookmarkRoot;
    myRoot.createChild("Index", "app.openDoc('/relative path to the file.pdf');");
    In both cases I'm getting errors in JavaScript Debugger. First of all, I see:
    NotAllowedError: Security settings prevent access to this property or method.
    app.openDoc:1:Bookmark undefined:Mouse Up.
    Please advise what I'm doing wrong and what is the easiest way to create a such bookmark which opens a simple pdf file which stored in the same directory where all files are.
    Regards,
    Dima

    Hi try67,
    Thanks for your advise. You've saved me a lot of time. I'was looking through the JavaScripting guide but didn't take a look into API refference for some reason.
    For those, who're interested in the correct code is:
    var myRoot = this.bookmarkRoot;
    myRoot.createChild("Index");
    var Index = myRoot.children[0];
    Index.setAction("app.openDoc('index file name',this);
    This works only if your file is placed into the same directory.

  • Creating New Bookmark Programmatically in Acrobat v9

    I want to programmatically create new bookmarks in Acrobat v9.
    For v7 the code I'm using is app.MenuItemExecute({cName:"Split Bookmarks",cParent:"Edit",cExec:"brk(this.bookmarkRoot);",nPos:1}).
    What has this been updated to in v9?
    Thank you.

    Sorry, I sent the wrong line of code.
    Has this command been updated for v9:
    app.execMenuItem("NewBookmark")
    When I run the below code Acrobat says there is an internal error.
    I'm assuming the issue is "app.execMenuItem("NewBookmark")".
    function brk(splitbm)
    // * is the authors choice for the split character, you may change it
    if (splitbm.name.indexOf('*') != -1)
    split(splitbm);
    //split if the bookmark name has the ^ charater
    if (splitbm.children != null)
    for (var i=0;i< splitbm.children.length;i++)
    newbrk(splitbm.children[i]);
    // split all the children bookmarks of mybm
    function split(bm)
    var bmname=bm.name;
    var splitat=bmname.indexOf('*');
    // The user can change the * , remember to change the previous function as well
    var topname=bmname.substring(0,splitat);
    var botname=bmname.substring(splitat+1,bmname.length);
    var thisdoc=bm.doc;
    bm.execute();
    app.execMenuItem("NewBookmark");
    var thisdoc=bm.doc;
    var rootlen=thisdoc.bookmarkRoot.children.length;
    var newbm=thisdoc.bookmarkRoot.children[rootlen-1];
    newbm.name=botname;
    bm.name=topname;
    // make all [childbookmarks of mybm] newbm's children
    if (bm.children != null)
    var endpos=bm.children.length;
    for(a=0;a<endpos;a++)
    newbm.insertChild(bm.children[0]);
    //make newbm mybm's child
    bm.insertChild(newbm);
    app.addMenuItem({cName:"Split Bookmarks",cParent:"Edit",cExec:"brk(this.bookmarkRoot);",nPos:1});

  • Creating PDF bookmarks from Outlook 2007

    Hi, I am using Outlook 2007 SP1 and Acrobat 8.1.3 Professional and I want to have bookmarks in the PDF that is created by hitting the Create Adobe PDF from Folders button in Outlook. I used to have this feature when I was using Acrobat 7 with Outlook 2003.
    I found this previous thread, but the solution given does not help, I still can not create the bookmarks like I could with Acrobat 7.

    I do have the create PDF package selected, but I don't see how to create the bookmarks.

  • Creating APEX bookmarks to pages

    Hello,
    I have an APEX application with many forms, so I'm trying to create a "bookmark this page" function for my users..something that inserts the pageID into a "favorites" table, along with the appuserID, that sort-of thing.
    I've got a prototype working by putting a button on a page that says "Bookmark this page," but I don't want to have to repeat that on every page. I've been scanning Google and this forum for advice on how to do this, but haven't found how to set this up - I was thinking perhaps I could add an item to the standard NavBar labeled "bookmark" which could call a JavaScript and insert pageID:appuser into my favorites table, but haven't worked this out.
    Any ideas?

    Hi and thanks for the reply.
    I'm a bit familiar with Page0. I figured placing an item on that page to create a bookmark (of the current "real" page the user is viewing) would probably end up creating bookmarks to Page0, but I'll do some testing. I've had trouble creating items on Page0 before because of their special status, but I do already use Page0 in my app for some generic stuff (Welcome User || Logout, etc).
    I am not familar with the on-demand application process, so I'll do some reading on that. My thought on the NavBar was to link to "location" as an URL, and the URL would really be a JavaScript stored in APEX and JavaScript would somehow get the user's current page (I'm looking throught the flows_0x0000.tables to see if any thing can be gleaned from that as well).
    Hate to reinvent the wheel though if someone's already created this sort-of "bookmark" / "favorite places" component.

  • How to create a bookmark in a table, a header, a footer?

    I don't understand why the procedure (within the Pages '09 Help:
    Linking to Other Pages in a Document) to create a bookmark doesn't work as documented
    within a table,  within a header, within a footer.
    Where is the secret trick?
    With great expectations from one of the best software editor.
    dan

    Thank you Jerry for your reply
    confirming that I'm not a dummy unable to read a documentation.
    The secret is that there is a missing function and a missing documentation about it.
    A documentation is the wrong place to hide information.
    I took advantage of this silly waste of time to make a similar request to feedback. If you feel like me that there is here a missing function, just copy my original message and

  • Creating a bookmark for a query in web - which tables in this context ?

    Hi Experts,
    when I create a bookmark for a query processed in web , a record in tables RSZWVIEW and RSZWBOOKMARK as well  is generated.
    I'm searching for the link between this tables - i.e. where is the connection between BOOKMARKID of RSZWBOOKMARK
    and VIEWID of RSZWVIEW ?
    Thanks in advance
    Joe

    Hi Joe,
    i don't think there is a link.
    Judging by the timestamp for some of my bookmarks the entry in table RSZWVIEW gets created just before the entry in RSZWBOOKMARK.
    However, I do not see a link between the entries other than that they get created during the same activitiy: Creating a bookmark.
    Best,
    Ralf

  • Acrobat Pro XI - Inserting a blank page creates a bookmark

    When I insert a blank page Acrobat automatically creates a bookmark pointing to that blank page. Is there a way to prevent this behavior?

    It's likely a HTTPS site or you have an authenticating proxy server where you are required to enter a password to acess the web page. 

  • After upgrade to 6.3.4 cannot create new bookmarks by dragging nor open existing bookmark properties

    Just upgraded to 3.64. Now I cannot create new bookmarks either by dragging a URL or trying to create a new one in organize bookmarks. For existing bookmarks when I hit properties on the pop up menu all I get is a title bar that says "bookmark properties for (name of bookmark)" but I can't resize it or otherwise manipulate the title bar to access information or change the properties

    Hello Victor.
    You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
    If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
