How to create PDF bookmarks from Microsoft Word?

Question

I have a PDF file which I converted From Microsoft Word. Actually I'm working on an eBook and now I want to publish it as a PDF.

How do I create PDF bookmarks, either through Word or through editing the PDF afterwards?

Answer 1

Here is another solution for word 2007.

1) Install the pdf/xps add-on from here.

2) Go to Save as in your word file (which already has a number of headings outlined).

3) Save as PDf or XPS.

4) Click on the options button on the save as dialog.

5) Check the "Create bookmarks using" checkbox.

6) Click OK.

7) click publish.

This will give you headings as bookmarks in the pdf.
