.doc to .pdf

Can you get Adobe to pick up all references (bookmarks, captions, paragraph
numbers, page number references, etc.) in a Word doc and make them (hot)
internal links in the resulting pdf??? If so, how??

Thanks

If you turn on Acrobat's PDF Maker, and use the distiller to create your PDF
document, then yes, most of the hyperlinks, cross-references are "hot".
(The process does lock up your computer while the PDF document is being
made. I had a 300 page document with TOC take an entire weekend to become a
distilled PDF document.)

Also, there are problems with having Acrobat's PDFMaker installed with Word.
Word and Adobe PDFMaker don't always play well together. <smile>

Therefore, I turn on PDFMaker for specific purposes and then turn it right
off again, to minimize the pain in Word.

I gave you the correct answer the first time you asked this same
question in another newsgroup. You bring to mind an old adage
about leading a mule or donkey or some such critter to water but
not being able to make it drink.
