Hi, I would like to print the bookmark title on the page (in the actual PDF). Ideally, I would like to do this in the header section. Is there a way to do this in Acrobat?

Here's a paid-for Acrobat Automation script that does it:

Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well and thank you for reaching out. As i understand from the description you want to print the bookmark list from the document. If yes, there is nothing built into either Acrobat or Reader that provides such functionality. Conceivably, you may write either some Javascript or a plug-in to effectively create a new document from the bookmarks.

 

For more information please check the suggestions provided in the correct answers marked in the similar discussion listed below:

Hope it will help, let us know if you are referring to something else.

I don't think this is what they want to achieve. They want to add the bookmark names to the actual pages themselves, not to create a bookmark summary.

 

They can do that using this (paid-for) tool I've developed: http://try67.blogspot.com/2009/03/acrobat-add-bookmarks-namesnumbers-to.html
