Question

PDF Bookmarks from multiple paragraph?

Hello,

In Framemaker 2017, how do I convert a document where two Paragraphs appear as one PDF Bookmark? In a document created with a table structure, we require the Paragraphs in column 1 and 2 to appear as one bookmark in PDF (i.e. Item # and Item Name).

    Hi Alexander:

    FrameMaker will happily create PDF bookmarks from paragraph tags, but it creates one bookmark from one paragraph tag. The only way I know how to accomplish one bookmark from two paragraph tags is to edit the bookmark in Acrobat, but don't do this until you have finalized the PDF. If you have to edit the FrameMaker document/book and then regenerate the PDF, you will override your manual edits.

    I wonder if Shlomo's TimeSavers PDF plug-in would handle something like this...

      Hey Jeff:

      Good idea. I just skimmed the PDF and don't see it, but here's the link in case someone else wants to look it over: http://www.microtype.com/timesavers/TimeSavers5Shortcuts.pdf
