I searched the techwr archives and also checked the Adobe forum, but I could
not find a solution to the following problem.

I create a PDF from a Word 2000 document. If I look at the Navigation pane,
there are a 10 to 15 single character entries above a valid entry. For
example:

T
Technical support

or

C
Calculating costs

If I click on the single character entry, it takes me to the entry below it
(click T takes me to Technical Support etc.). If I click on Technical
support, it takes me to the correct entry. I've just been deleting these
single character entries from the PDF but I'd rather know why they occur so
I can fix them in the document or in the PDF creation settings.

Note that the actual table of contents for the document is fine (doesn't
have the single character "topics"). I can't find any pattern...some of of
these characters occur before Heading1 entries and others before Heading2
entries.

Has anyone run into this before?
