Edit a PDF Table of Contents

Bookmarks are the navigation panel down the side of a PDF reader. On a long document they are the difference between a usable reference and three hundred pages of scrolling.

How to Edit a PDF Table of Contents

  1. Upload the PDF.
  2. Add, rename or reorder the bookmarks.
  3. Save, then download the file.

When you would use this

  • Adding navigation to a scanned volume that has none.
  • Fixing bookmarks that broke after pages were reordered.
  • Building a table of contents before splitting by chapter.

Questions

Is a bookmark the same as a table of contents page?

No. Bookmarks are the reader's navigation panel. A contents page is printed content. Both can exist.

Why do my bookmarks point to the wrong pages?

Reordering or deleting pages leaves bookmarks pointing at their old positions. Re-point them here.

Can I create bookmarks automatically?

Not from a plain scan. Structure has to come from bookmarks or headings that already exist.

Need this at scale?

These tools handle one document at a time. When the job is thousands of files, Greenbooks handles document digitization as a managed service, including bulk scanning, OCR and metadata capture, with the output loaded into DocuVenta DMS. Talk to us about volume work.
