How do I add a table of contents to a PDF document created through iBooks?

I've been working on a iBook for a while for work and it functions great on an iPad. However, when I publish it as a PDF there is no table of contents. Is there a way to have the table of contents displayed automatically for the book? I dont mind if it's just a table of contents list like in a Word document, but the PDF file is very difficult if it's over 800 pages with no table of contents.

Update on what I did:
So instead of having an automatically generated template, I created a table of contents for each section on the chapter title slide. This table has 3 columns, Section, Topic and Page and then I use that as a reference guide for users who only use the PDF version of the document. There is no way to have interactive reference links in table elements in iBook but it suits the purpose well.

This page is not a DW Template. It's just an ordinary HTML
page. And if
you *paid* for it, I'd ask for my money back -

Anyhow, to place a table in the location you desire, click
within the words
"Sites to buy your Radio control vehicles and spares" in
Design view, then
look at the Tag Selector bar at the bottom of the document
pane, and click
on the first <p> tag from the right. That will select
the entire <p> tag
and its contents. Since you cannot insert a table within a
<p> tag, you
would want the insertion point to be just to the right of
that paragraph, so
press the right arrow once. In Design view, you will see the
insertion
point to the right of the 'spares'. Now you can insert a
table.
WARNING: Using DW without a basic understanding of HTML and
CSS will cause
you to encounter mystery after mystery just like this, and
will ultimately
make your hair fall out and your teeth rot. Just don't take
that chance.

How do I get the table of contents to toggle? I opened it while reading one book I had checked out from my library, but it is still open when I start another book. I am using Adobe 4 and Windows 8.1 on my PC.

How do I get the table of contents to toggle? It has remained open since I opened it while reading two books ago. Thanks for the help.

Thank you for your advice. I followed your directions, but came up with the same results. However, I did discover that whenever I open up the iPhoto Library that is already existing on my MacBook a certain set of pictures shows up. But then when I open up the iPhoto Library from the Hard drive another set of pictures shows up. BUT not ALL of my pictures are showing up on the iPhoto Library from the hard drive. At least the last two years of pictures are not showing up?! Actually, it appears that all the pictures are there from when I started using iPhoto about 5 years ago up until around the time that I got my iMac desktop computer and started using that (2 years ago). I have noticed that more recent videos I have made are showing up in a folder on the hard drive, but will not appear when I open up iMovie?! Any ideas on how to access my pictures from the last 2 years off of the hard drive???

How do I make a table of contents for a collection of six short stories that is after the legal page and NOT in the front on an unnumbered page?

How do I make a table of contents for a collection of six short stories that is after the legal page and NOT in the front on an unnumbered page?
When I first started I made a title page and then pasted in my first story from a .TXT file. After cleaning up I went back to the front a couple of empty lines ahead of the story and typed in the story title. Unlarged the font size and centered it, then

You can't do that. This is what the Pages User Guide, downloadable from your Pages Help menu, says:
Creating and Updating a Table of Contents
Each table of contents (TOC) you create using a Word Processing template lists only the content that follows it, up until the next table of contents. If you want a master table of contents for the entire document, it must be the only table of contents, and it must be at the beginning of the document.
You can do it manually though.

How can I generate a table of contents from bookmarks

How can I generate a Table of Contents from bookmarks in Adobe Acrobat XI?

Something to try.
Rick Bostein provided a "Create Bookmark Report" Acrobat Action.
With this report as a PDF you could insert it at the start of your PDF document to serve as a "TOC".

How to manually edit a "Table of Contents"

How do I set a table of contents to display "..." or align in a "nicer way" - either through manual editing or some advanced automatic vodoo.
Right now my TOC looks like this:

And that's not a good thing.

Here are some links to older TOC question that might answer yours. There are quite a few threads about TOC if you do a search in the forum.

Hi meatmailbox,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The best way to backup your iTunes library is to an external hard drive. The article below will explain how to do this. If you want the files on a CD or DVD, you would need to create playlists. I'll include that information as well.

Is it possible to delete the table of contents in a pdf but keep the bookmarks?

If the TOC is located on certain pages, you can simply delete those (from the Pages panel).
Make sure it doesn't screw up with how your bookmarks work, though...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://....">

i did this with the if_ixml interface and rendered the content in a file 'D:\usr\sap\IFD\DVEBMGS01\log\TEST_out.xml
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<OpenSearchDescription xmlns="http://....">

BUT the document attribut(?) encoding="UTF-8"?> is missing!

Use the following code:
set an document encoding
l_encoding = l_ixml->create_encoding( character_set = 'UTF-8'
                                        byte_order = if_ixml_encoding=>co_none ).
l_success = l_ostream->set_encoding( encoding = l_encoding ).
create a xml renderer
l_renderer = l_ixml->create_renderer( document = l_doc ostream = l_ostream ).

Word 2013 table of contents duplicated in PDF

I have a large MS Word document - 326 pages, 56 thousand words and hundreds of images. I have a table of contents in my word document. When I use the MS Word "Save as Adobe PDF" to turn it into PDF, the finished document contains TWO tables of contents, one right after the other.
In the original Word Document the first item in the text ("Acknowledgements") is found on page "ix" and is correctly referenced in the ToC.
In the PDF, the FIRST ToC also correctly references "Acknowledgements" and says it is found on page "ix". However, because there is a SECOND ToC, Acknowledgements now actually appears on page "xiv". The SECOND ToC lists Acknowledgements as being on "xiv", but all the other page numbers are correct and identical in both versions of the ToC. The hyperlinks in both ToCs work perfectly.
I have removed the ToC from the Word document and re-installed it but the problem persists. Why is PDFmaker duplicating the table of contents like this?
Operating system: Windows 7 x64
MS Office 2013 (64-bit)
Acrobat Pro XI (patch level 11.0.08) - I note that the PDFmaker COM add-in is a 32-bit version.

Hi PHultin -
Thanks for reporting your issue.

How to add text and objects (arrows) over a PDF document?

I am only familiar with Adobe Reader. Looking for the least expensive Adobe product that would allow me to add text and arrows over an existing PDF document. Not looking to edit (change) document other than add a "layer" over the original. Basic stuff I'm sure. Thanks for your help.

If you say so But I read the Original Comments and it doesn't sound like adding comments. When you adding layers as he is describing That is adding content.
"Not looking to edit (change) document other than add a 'layer' over the original."
But if you say Commenting then I suppose you are all correct.

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central.

How do I add a functional "submit button" to a pdf form in Adobe Acrobat Pro XI ? I created the pdf form in Adobe Forms Central. It's for an online Diet Questionnaire. After people complete the form I'd like them to click "SUBMIT" and the completed form will be emailed to me.

This can be a bit confusing because Acrobat 11 comes with the desktop app that allows you to create simple PDF forms without having a FormsCentral account. Some people find this helpful, but you need to understand that when you generate the PDF form, it is Reader-enabled by Acrobat. In order to edit the form further in Acrobat, you have to create a non-enabled copy of the form. You do this in Acrobat by opening the form and selecting: File > Save a Copy
and opening the copy. It is not opened automatically.
You can now add a button and set it up to submit by email, either using a "Submit a form" action or the submitForm JavaScript method. You can set it up to include just the form data or the entire PDF, and will want to use a mailto type URL. Submitting the form to the FormsCentral server has a number of important advantages over email (much more reliable, more secure, etc.), so you might want to consider it.
If the form needs to be saved with Reader versions prior to 11, then you will need to Reader-enable the document. In Acrobat 11 you do this by selecting: File > Save As Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools
