Printing Your Bookmarks

Bookmarks are wonderful navigational tools for PDF documents, and they are also a great way of organizing your documents. But what if you want to print out a list of the bookmarks you have in a document? Well, there are a couple of ways.

One way is with a plug-in like the one created by IntelliPDF, which costs $99. The nice thing about this plug-in is that you can select just certain bookmarks, or all of them, if you want.

Another, albeit more complicated, way that supposedly works with Acrobat 5.0 is this: (1) Open the File menu, point to Batch Processing, and click List all Bookmarks. If that option isn't available, you'll need to copy that SEQU file from the Acrobat installation CD and put it in C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 5.0\Acrobat\Sequences\ENU. (2) When prompted, select the PDF for which you want to print bookmarks.
The batch sequence will read through the PDF and create a new PDF that lists all the bookmarks in the original. (3) Print the new PDF that the sequence created.
