Is there an easy way to print the bookmarks of an Acrobat file using Acrobat Pro 9.5?

 

Is there an easy way to expand all headings?

 

Thank you

    I don't know of a way to print bookmarks. You could make a screen capture.

     

    You can expand all bookmarks by holding down the Option/Alt key and clicking one of the disclosure triangles.

    I have developed scripts that allow you to do both things.

    Create Bookmarks Summary (outputs the bookmarks structure to either PDF or

    a plain-text file, which you can then print out):

    Close/Open all Bookmarks:

    I have a screen capture utility (FastStone) and it does scrolling windows, but in this case it's only capturing a part of it all.  Thanks for the Alt Click suggestion.

     

    What is a disclosure triangle?

     

    I wish Acrobat had this functionality built in.  I don't need much by way of printouts, but it is nice to have a physical copy of the index and table of contents, which is essentially what bookmarks are.

    I appreciate your effort to help but getting into scripts is a bit more than I can handle right now.

     

    Thank you again

    Here is something you can try:

    With your file open, and assuming it has all the bookmarks setup:

    Simply export to HTML (File > Export > HTML > I picked HTML 3.2). That should create an HTML file.

    Open the new HTML file and the first thing you should see is a list of all the bookmarks!!!

    This worked for me (I have Adobe 9). Let me know if it works for you.

     

    P.S. After copying the list, I pasted in Word and changed the bullets to numbers by right clicking one of the bullets and selecting Numbering!

    That was a good answer.  It would be helpful if Adobe would provide that option without having to jump through the hoops, but I am glad to know about this.  I too imported the HTML into WORD and deleted everything below the Bookmarks and it suits the purpose.

     

    Thank you.
