Hi Becca

There is a way to do this. Word has a little-used feature called RD fields.
Use them to generate the toc. For more details see Microsoft KBase article
212346 (Word 2000) or 127249 (older versions.

Subject: acrobat question: one PDF from many .docs?


I have Acrobat 4.0, running under Windows NT and with
Word 98.  I need to distill 6 Word documents into one
PDF file, and truly can't figure out how to do it and
keep my TOC page numbers and cross references active.
 I've tried printing to a PRN file, concatinating the
files into one PS file and distilling on that, but I
lose my active toc.

If I have to, I'll merge all the files into one big
word doc, but I really don't want to do that; my
computer has a bad habit of corrupting the file when I
do.

Surely there's a way? but I can't even find mention of
it in the online help for Acrobat.
