Editing your PDF File

Create a New Bookmark in the current Document

Bookmarks are used to identify the location of text within a document. They can be used for navigation and to establish cross-references within your document. We recommend setting up your bookmarks in your MS Word document before conversion (see above in "Preparing your word processed document for trouble free conversion to PDF"). The Graduate Information Literacy Program also run regular MS Word courses.

However, if necessary bookmarks can also be created in the pdf file, using Adobe Acrobat 7.0. Use the following instructions or the Acrobat tutorial accessible from the Graduate Information Literacy Program's Online Learning page. - relevant information to be found in module Level 1 (Part 2) > Use Bookmarks.

Method 1

1. Open your document in Adobe Acrobat 7.0
2. Go the page you want to bookmark
3. Click on the 'Bookmarks' tab on the left hand side of the document view
4. Click on the Options drop down menu on the Bookmarks palette and select New Bookmark
5. Type a name for your bookmark (e.g. Chapter 1) - press key Enter

Method 2

1. Open your document in Adobe Acrobat 7.0
2. Click on the 'Bookmarks' tab
3. Scroll to the page you want to bookmark
4. Click on the 'Select' button on the Basic toolbar
5. Select the text (e.g. a heading) you wish to bookmark
6. Click on the Options drop down menu, Select New Bookmark (or CTRL + B) - press key Enter

Continue scrolling down the text or navigating through the pages for further text to bookmark.

Indenting bookmarks

To give a hierarchical arrangement to your bookmarks, select a group of sub-bookmarks (with Ctrl + click) and drag them so that they are nested within their combined heading bookmark (drag them to the name of that bookmark and not to the icon in front of the name).
