Hi

I know how to create bookmarks in my PDF.

The problem is that when I click on a bookmark it takes me to the page where the bookmark is but does not highlight the specific section or word that I have bookmarked.

Please can you assist.

When I click on a bookmark I want the specific word or section that I bookmarked highlighted to make it easy to find on the page.

That's not possible, unless a script is used to select the word or show/hide a comment. Bookmarks are not connected to the words you have selected when you create them. The application uses the text when naming the bookmark, but that's it. They only point to the area on the page where that text is located.
