Hello,

Ok - thanks for the advice on how to print a number of documents all together as a book to pdf.

Now I have done this - I am experiencing some problems:-

On the TOC (I have a TOC defined for each section) I want to be able to click on the individual subsections and be taken straight to it in the document (sure there is a technical term for this - I just don't know it).

Also, on the bookmark tab in my pdf I would like all of my TOC (for each section) displayed, and as before be able to click on these to be taken straight to the relevant sections (ah ha - is this called a hyperlink...?)

Just to let you know - this is the process I go through:-

1) Select all book sections from book.
2) Click on that funny arrow thing at top right of book box
3) Click export book to .pdf
4) Choose file name
5) I have the preset set as custom, on the general tab the only check boxes not ticked are - Spreads, Visible Guides and Baseline Grids. All the other tabs (Summary, security etc....) I left alone.
6) I then click export
7) It opens without the extra functions I need.

Thanks very much for all your help.

When you create your TOC, ensure you have Create PDF Bookmarks selected.

Then when you go to export the book, make sure Bookmarks is selected under the General tab.

Also, I think the Hyplerlinks tab lets you create links within the document outside of the TOC. (I've never used this feature, so this is just a guess.)

Hope that helps.
