Creating Bookmarks in a PDF Doc

Hi,
I have a created a couple of ibots that create PDF documents - does anyone know how to have bookmarks created in the PDF file ?
In a previous BI tool we used when a PDF was created it created a tree of bookmark links on the left side.
Any idea's appreciated.
Thanks,
Patricia

I don't think this is possible with Answers reports. But BI Publisher does support PDF bookmarks, have a look at this:

Creating bookmarks in a PDF file

I know that Adobe Acrobat Professional has the ability to create bookmarks in PDF files. Is there another maybe free solution that I could use to create bookmarks in PDF files? I need to be able to post PDF files on my web site that have bookmarks in them so that users can quickly go to a specific page.
Looking forward to alternatives that I may be able to use.

Aw man, I didn't know that. But you're right. It doesn't cause Save to be available and they don't show up in Acrobat Reader. That's lame.
I never looked into that before because I have Acrobat.

Bookmarks in a PDF Portfolio

How can I create bookmarks in a PDF Folio. I have a sample of one so I know it can be done but have no idea how to go about it. Any suggestions would ve very welcome.

The Portfolio itself cannot realistically contain bookmarks as there's no side pane to display them (it's possible but pointless)
Bookmarks in one file can point to a Page View in another file just as they can in a regular PDF, but you can only create links and bookmarks between the documents in a Portfolio after it's been created, and you have to do it by hand.
Open the source file into a new window
Bookmarks sidebar tool menu > New bookmark
Name it
Right-click > Properties
Actions
Delete the current Action
Add "Go to a page view"
Switch back to the Portfolio.
Navigate to the destination file and open it into a third window
Select the page and press OK
Save the source file and close the window

Creating Bookmarks

Hi,
I'm looking for some help in automatically creating bookmarks in a pdf file. I know the manual way of going about it, but in case of 200-300 pages it's quite a pain!
How would the JavaScript know which title to give to the bookmark?
Thanks in advance
cheers

If you are using MS Word have the Acrobat converter create the links, or there are 3rd pary tools that can add bookmarks after the fact.

How do I create bookmarks? Did I buy the wrong software?

How do I create bookmarks?

Hi marchiondo,
To create bookmarks in a PDF, you need Acrobat. If you don't have Acrobat, feel free to try it for 30 days. See www.adobe.com/products/acrobat.html for more information.

To access bookmarks in pdf doc using acrobat sdk with C#

Hi, I am converting a word doc to PDF. While doing this the headlines in word doc are getting converted to bookmarks in PDF & I get a bookmark tree. I want the bookmarks to be collapsed. I am using acrobat dll to convert word doc to pdf. Want to use the same to collapse the bookmarks.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Irosenth,
If we have Acrobat installed on our m/c in Micorsoft office word I get an "Acrobat" tab. In that I get an option to create "PDF" from word.
So keeping this in mind I created a project in C# using VS 2008. In this project I took the reference of "Acrobat.dll" the com library.
Using the reference of this library I converted the word/excel/ppt docs to PDF.
Below is the code snippet :
public
void startConversion(string docFile, string pdfFile){
Acrobat.
AcroAVDocClass _acroDoc = new Acrobat.AcroAVDocClass();Acrobat.
AcroPDDoc _pdDoc = null;
string strNonPDFFile = docFile;
string strPDFFile = pdfFile;
_acroDoc.Open(strNonPDFFile, strPDFFile);
_pdDoc = (Acrobat.
AcroPDDoc)(_acroDoc.GetPDDoc());
_pdDoc.Save(
Convert.ToInt16(Acrobat.PDSaveFlags.PDSaveFull), strPDFFile);
_pdDoc.Close();
_pdDoc =
null;_acroDoc.Close(1);
_acroDoc =
null;}
This does convert Word/exce/ppt to pdf successfully. But I wanted to get access to the bookmarks of the PDF file....
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Lalit

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 plus I create PDF files for work some are scan pdf docs. When I install Photoshop Elements 10 it DOES convert all the PDF files to Photoshop Elements-10 Docs. it even changes and shows the PSE-10 Icon. So I am alway installing PSE-10 or uninstalling it. If I send the PDF file that has been automatically converted to a PSE-10 the person I send the file to can not open it because they do not have PSE-10. What can I do to stop PSE-10 from converting my PDF files? Don't tell me to upgrade PSE-10 I tried their on-line program and it is too advance for a hobby photographer like myself and their Help Desk is impossible to reach.

Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links to additional PDF docs? If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's?

Does Adobe Reader for iOS have the ability to open inbedded links created with Acrobat Standard to additional PDF docs? If not, then what would be the best way to use these already created PDF's on an I Pad?

driddy61,
As of June 2014, none of the Adobe Reader mobile products support the hyperlink action for opening a separate PDF document.
Adobe Reader for iOS
Adobe Reader for Android
Adobe Reader Touch for Windows 8
In addition, the Reader mobile products do not open multiple windows/documents simultaneously, which would make the navigation between PDF documents nearly impossible. (Once a hyperlink takes you to a different PDF document, you have no way to go back to the original PDF document.)
The only Adobe Reader product that fulfills your department's requirements is Adobe Reader XI (mostly for Windows/Mac desktop/laptop computers). Acrobat Pro and Standard are paid products.
Because you are in search of a less expensive device for your department, you could get a Windows tablet instead of a Windows desktop/laptop computer. Microsoft Surface Pro (that you've mentioned in your previous reply) is just one example. You can also find other less expensive Windows tablets.
Tablets
However, please keep in mind that there are two different types of Windows tablets running two different operating systems.
(a) A Windows tablet with an Intel-based processor running Windows 8.1 Pro
Example: Surface Pro 3
You can install and run traditional desktop apps (e.g. Adobe Reader XI) and new Windows Store apps ("Modern" or "Metro-style" apps).
(b) A Windows tablet with an ARM-based processor running Windows RT 8.1
Example: Surface 2
You can only install and run Windows Store apps (e.g. Adobe Reader Touch) but not traditional desktop apps like Adobe Reader XI.
In general, type (b) tablets are more affordable than type (a) tablets. However, if you want to run Adobe Reader XI, you do need to check the technical specification of each tablet and make sure the following conditions are met.
Processor: Intel
Operating system: Windows 8/8.1 or Windows 8/8.1 Pro, not RT
Hope this helps you choose the right device for your department. Please let us know if you have any questions about system requirements or supported features in the Adobe Reader products.

Creating popup menus using bookmarks in acrobat pdf

Hi All,
I have a requirment to create a button called "Index" in a pdf.
When I click on that button it should show the popup menu and if I click any of the menuitem in that, it should take me to that particular page. I saw some of the interactive pdf's available on the web and they have this facility. I tried to incorporate this into my pdf, it shows the popup menu item correctly but not taking me to that particular page and throughs an error message.
itemIndex is not defined
3:AcroForm:Index:Annot1:MouseUp:Action1
Below is the code I tried for your reference.
My question: Is there any way to populate this popup menu with the action to go to particular page, from the available bookmarks of a pdf?
Please help me. Thanks in advance.
var itemInedex = app.popUpMenu("Executive summary", "Why backups?", "Defining the data status (consistency)", "New disk technologies", "Understanding disaster recovery and restart and recovery", "Drawbacks with backups", "Backup in mainframe", "Schematic presentation", "For more information")
switch (itemIndex) {
case "Executive summary":
this.pageNum = 0
break
case "Why backups?":
this.pageNum = 3
break
case "Defining the data status (consistency)":
this.pageNum = 4
break
case "New disk technologies":
this.pageNum = 5
break
case "Understanding disaster recovery and restart and recovery":
this.pageNum = 6

In MAC, I want to change document size from 8.5X11 to 18X24 to create a poster to print through Staples. I created the doc originally in WORD, changed the size in WORD, converted to PDF doc. But PDF doc is still in 8.5X11. Read ADOBE support help info. Terls me to change size in application rather than printer. BUT ACROBAT Pro does not give me a page set up option in FILE. I can only find one in the printer dialog box. Help!

from the FAQs on Staples website:
I have a file that I know is a PDF, but the website claims it is not in a PDF format. What should I do?
Check to see that the file has the .PDF extension. Also, check that the filename does not have any special characters such as an ampersand (“&”).
Regarding your measurements set to centimeters rather than inches; is it just in MS Word?
Or does it occur in all other applications.
Check your Work preferences first:
If it is happening in all your applications, check your Mac OS System Preferences.

Pdf docs created in pages show only photos, graphics, NO text, Help

I have tried exporting to pdf, best quality & also "Print" to pdf with same results. The resulting thumbnail on my desktop and the one in "get info". look fine but when the pdf doc is opened only the graphic elements including photos show up. NO words show up at all (on Mac or PC). I need to be able to create pdf so I can print on pc network. Any suggestions. It would appear that I am following the instructions correctly as a pdf is actually created but with the above results.

Tried your suggestion to no avail. However found some new info that might help find the problem.
1. When I open in preview rather than Adobe the document looks correct.
2. When I click and drag across the missing text I can produce grayed blocks where the text should be..
3. If I then "copy" and "past" into a blank word document the text appears in the word document.
4. I was able to open the document with the problem with e-copy desk top a kind of reader/converter.
5. My OS is up to date.
5. Adobe reader is up to date as well (8.1 think).
Thanks, for your help though. I really appreciate your trying.

How do you create bookmarks when you create a PDF from word?

Creating new column in existing pdf doc

I am trying to add a new column with some CFif content into a pdf doc that is already created. the original pdf doc contains a table PropertyDetails_T with columns such as 1st column : 'customer name' 2nd col : 'no. of. vehicles' 3rd column : 'area of farmland'. I have to insert a new column between 1st and 2nd.
i am using dreamweaver. in design mode i inserted columns to right of 1st column and added the column name "area of property".
Next i include CFif lines in code mode as given below :
<cfif getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty NOT EQUAL "">
<td> #NumberFormat (getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty,"_______.__")#</td>
<cfelse>
<td>0.00</td>
</cfif>
but after writing these lines and saving, the table in design mode has been messed up. i see that CFif content of 'no.of vehicles' has been moved to the next column 'area of farmland'. i have the new Cfif content - <cfif getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty NOT EQUAL "">
<td> #NumberFormat (getPropertyDetails_T.areaofProperty,"_______.__")#</td>
where it should be that is 'area of property' column.
But i see that value '0.00' has been diplayed below the column 'no.of vehicles' instead of the CFif content that was previously added to it and is now pushed to next column.
does anyone have pointers as to how i could correctly apply indentation or code it right to align the right column to the right CFif contents.
thnx,
sachinpol

Creating Bookmarks in PDF Output

I am going to be exporting my final InDesign document to PDF. I need to create bookmarks for the document because they are used to access topics in online help. I've attempted to do this by selecting Bookmarks in the export settings, with no results. I am not sure how to get headings in my InDesign document to appear in PDF output as bookmarks. Is there such a thing as a heading style in InDesign, as in FrameMaker and Word? Does anyone have experience doing this? I really need to know how to do it. Thanks.
Best wishes,
Tony

The TOC uses only the headers that appear at the top of each page. How doI get the headings and subheadings throughout the document to appear as bookmarks in PDF?
A TOC will include whatever you tell it to include.
Right. Any paragraph-styled text can be extracted to TOC/bookmarks.
The functionality you want is there, but your statements demonstrate that you've assumed limitations that aren't. They also demonstrate that you're not clueless. Look just a bit deeper.

Creating hyperlinks to pdf docs on a CD. Anyone experienced in doing this?

Need to create hyperlinks to pdf documents in a CD. The pdf docs were created using an older version of Adobe and I am trying to follow a YOuTube instructing me how to create hyperlinks in the Table of Contents on the CD. The instructions on the YoTube do not match what is in the document for creating a hyperlink. Do I need to send and save all documents as NEW adobe pdf.s??? Thanks!!!
