PDF Bookmarks on PE Server

cleccese · ‎Nov 25, 2013

Hello All,

I have been able to get PDF bookmarks to show when using File->Compose->PDF File locally but not when I do File->Print Composed from a PE Server. Any advice would be appreciated.

In top level eic:

<charsubset>
<usetext source='!<atidmd:documentmetadata source="atend"><atidmd:docview mode="bookmarks"<br"/> fit="fitPage" destination="></atidmd:docview>

Short on time, so this will be brief and just pointers to thing to look
into and/or report back here:

I believe Print Composed PDF Bookmark support was withdrawn. I do not
remember with what version. You must be doing a Compose PDF. Whether you
are using Distiller, the Acrobat server version, or PDF Direct (or Direct
PDF ... the pdflib built into PE after a certain version) may also matter.
Your DCF may also need to specify the right things. PDF Bookmarks require
DIV status in the DCF, I think.

So:
What version of Publishing Engine?
Acrobat/distiller/pdflib?
What does your PDF say about the elements' DIV status?

Hi Paul,

Thanks for responding. We are using Arbortext Editor 5.4 M170. I do not know what DIV status is, how do I find that information?

I went to Help -> About -> PE Configuration and it says
Adobe Distiller Installed
Print Engine Default: fosi
Use Distiller for PDF generation: no

But when we do File->Print Composed we are sending it to an Adobe PDF print driver.

Also, this is a large file. If I try to do Compose->PDF, I get a java heap error. PTC pointed me to knowledge base article Document - CS43917 for the java heap error.

PTC just confirmed that to see bookmarks, you have to do File->Compose->PDF.

With respect to your DCF (which may or may not need tweaking depending on
whether Compose PDF solves the problem), elements are defined as div in the
<elementoptions> tag. A child element of ElementOptions must be declared
for each element that needs to be a div. It look something like this:

<elementoptions>
<elementoption category="division" element="elementnamehere"/">
<elementoption category="division" element="anotherelementnamehere"/">
<elementoption category="division" element="etcetcetc"/">
</elementoptions>
