Re: Word TOC converted to PDF bookmarks has incorrect hierarchy levels

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

I'm thinking no one answered before because this sounds like a problem with
Adobe, not Word. Try their Help or forums.

Sorry.

Hi!

I have Word 2003 document with TOC like this:

1. Introduction
1.1 Purpose
1.2 Audience
1.3 Product Overview
1.4 System Dependencies
1.5 Product Prefixes
1.6 Document Organization
1.7 What¹s New in this Release
1.8 Conventions
1.9 Related Documents
1.10 Getting Help
1.11 What¹s Next
2. Installation Overview and Preparation
2.1 Purpose
2.2 Product Instance
2.3 Installation Overview
2.4 Machine Platform Preparation

and so on.

Levels are made using Heading 1 (for 1. and 2. items) and Heading 2 (for
subitems, like 1.1, 1.2 etc.).

I also adjusted levels in the Document Map with Outlining tools
("Introduction" and "Installation Overview and Preparation" are promoted to
Level 1). These two items should be top-level.

But, the problem is, when I create PDF using PDFMaker 7.0 and it converts
Heading 1 and Heading 2 to its bookmarks (I set it in Conversion Settings),
the bookmarks in the resulting PDF file show that only "Introduction" is top
level! The 2nd top-level TOC item is not top-level in PDF bookmarks for some
reason -
Item 2 ("Installation Overview and Preparation") is at the same level as
items 1.1 through 1.11.

How can I fix that? I already reviewed all styles applied to Heading 1 in
Word document - they are all correct. I mean, item 1 and item 2 in the Word
file are completely the same. Why PDFMaker places item 2 at a lower level in
the PDF file?

Please help!
