Problem with Bookmarks that contain special characters

Question

I have a documents with bookmarks that contain phrases with words containing special characters (specifically Italian accents, for example: L’ubiquità della collaborazione

Then I have buttons at the top of the document. Each button links to a specific bookmark. If the bookmarks contain this characters/accents, the button don't work.

So the buttons only work when linking to bookmarks not contain special characters/accents.

Any ideas?

Vinny38 thanks for the answer. I've just solve the problem by changing the procedure I used to create bookmarks:

This is what WON'T WORK:

- highlighting all the text and then create a bookmark.

Pro: The bookmarks are added automatically with all the sentence that was highlighted

Cons: The bookmark that contains accents or apostrophes, won't work with buttons

This is the way to SOLVE the problem:

- Instead of highlighting a sentence you want to bookmark,

- you just place the cursor at the beginning of the sentence

- you create the bookmark and because you don't highlight the entire sentence you have to manually put the name of the bookmark

Pro: works even if you have accents or apostrophes

Cons: you have to write the name of the bookmark manually.

HiI can recreate your issue!After some testing, I believe the guilty character is not the à but the apostrophe (’).Two thoughts:- page bookmark seems to be working fine- since text bookmark is buggy you can tag "ubiquità della collaborazione" then manually rename your bookmark to add the missing L'Maybe Interactive PDF experts might come up with better thinking...
