I just downloaded the 30 day free version of Acrobat Professional, because I want to create a PDF from a Word document. That document already has its own table of contents, which was built from headers that I inserted.
I would like the PDF file to have its own table of contents (displayed via the two-pane window, in which I click on the table of contents entry and have the system take to the respective part of the PDF).
However, when I read the documentation for Acrobat, it seems to say that the only to create PDF bookmarks is to type them manually. I can find no mention of importing Word bookmarks into PDF bookmarks. Is my understanding correct? Thanks.
You can select text in the PDF document using the "select text" tool, highlighting the text and then right click and copy. Then in the bookmarks pane under options, select new bookmark and then paste the text. I think that is as good as it gets.
