Creating bookmarks via printing

2006-08-23 17:45:57 by shawnmatlock

I started with Acrobat 7 with MS Word 2003. I have a macro that collects and processes data from the user (it generates the directory and file names) then prints to PDFDistiller. But it does not create bookmarks.

I was told (on another board) that bookmarks do not show up when printing to Distiller. I should try another PDF writer.

I tried PDFCreator and got the same results.

Can PDFCreator make bookmarks when printing to it from a macro?

My code is below:

'***** PDFCreator support *****
Application.ActivePrinter = "PDFCreator"
If Err.Number <> 0 Then
MsgBox "Error setting printer to PDFCreator"
End If

Set objPDFCreator = CreateObject("PDFCreator.clsPDFCreator")

On Error GoTo ErrorTrap

With objPDFCreator
.cClearCache
DoEvents
ActiveDocument.PrintOut Background:=False
DoEvents
.cPrinterStop = False
End With

DoEvents

Where can I find API information for PDF-T-Maker?

PDF-T-Maker is a ms office macro.

Other than installation of PDF-T-Maker, the only documentation I can find is not in English.

Further suggestions?

Thank you,

Of course it is in english!
Download it from here:
http://www.transcom.de/transcom/downloads/PDF-T-Maker.zip

Unzip it and read the file "PDF-T-Maker_M_English.pdf".
