Convert .doc files to PDF and retain 'structure' info
Authored by: palahala on Jan 09, '09 09:14:57AM

Given my experience with File, Print, PDF in Safari (see reply above): Pages might in fact also be able to create clickable references such as table of contents, indexes, external URLs, et cetera when clicking them on the PDF pages themselves...?

If such references are indeed clickable within the PDF pages themselves, then maybe you're only missing the table of contents like the one that often is shown in Preview's sidebar? (In Preview, one can switch between page thumbnails and the table of contents, but the availability of the latter depends on structure of the PDF document.) If so, then maybe "Export bookmarks as named destinations" (as it is named in the Export to PDF options in OpenOffice.org) is not implemented, or somehow needs to be enabled? When disabling that option in OpenOffice.org, one still gets clickable references, but Preview's sidebar no longer shows a list.

(Hmmm, hoping I made myself clear....)
