Features included in the MS PDF add-in
I have Office 2007 and Acrobat 8.0 and have researched the compatibility
issues. What I really need from a pdf at present is the 'automatically create links from the table of contents' feature. Creating links manually just isn't going to work for me long term. If I get the pdf add-in for Word, will I get something like this, to auto create links off my TOC? Thanks. |

The free XPS/PDF addin for Office 2007 from Microsoft automatically creates
links from the table of contents -- it's the default behavior. You can do it without using Acrobat. You should also be able to do it using Acrobat 8 (standard or pro).

Herb,
Thanks for the information. I can assure you that it does not work using Acrobat 8 - I spent a long time trying to figure out why, and after searching many forums, found out that the two are not compatible. I will try the add-in, though.

Acrobat 8 - updated to version 8.1.2 is certainly compatible with Word 2007.
In order for the links to work, you have to use the tools on the Acrobat Tab and check the option for Links (and Bookmarks) in the preferences. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org sfisher wrote: Herb, Thanks for the information.

Well... I can assure you that it DOES work from Acrobat 8 :-) Acrobat 8
Professional, at least--but I can't think of why it wouldn't work from Standard, as well. I'm using the default settings. On your setup, there might be some setting that's not enabled, however--as indicated by Graham. Using the free Office 2007 add-in should get you what you want without Acrobat, so you should be set in any case. -- Herb Tyson MS MVP Author of the Word 2007 Bible Blog: http://word2007bible.herbtyson.com Web: http://www.herbtyson.com "sfisher" wrote in message ...
