Hi,
When I produce a PDF file from a Word document using the Convert to Adobe PDF toolbar icon I get bookmarks. When I create the PDF by printing to a file and then distilling, I do not.
Word 2000 on Windows 2000
Acrobat 7.0 (it was the same with 6.0)
My colleagues in the technical communications team (Word experts) are having the same problem. Is this a bug/limitation of Word (or Distiller)? Or is there something obvious that we must do to to create bookmarks the distiller way?
Dare I mention that we don't have any such problem using FrameMaker? ;-)
