I agree with Sean, I did a presentation on this once before and if I recall, you have to first map/match them properly in In-design and even then, you will likely have to do some touching up in Acrobat!

Is there a setting to map the headings to bookmarks? I don't think just mapping the styles in InDesign is sufficient to obtain the bookmarks without another step.

In the conversion from MS Word, this is a separate setting that will allow headings to also create bookmarks. There may be such an option in he export from InDesign (sorry I can't be more specific - it's been awhile since I played with those options).

Take care,
Sean

Hello All:

I have a small ebook I'm trying to export from InDesign to PDF in an accessible format. Although I map the styles to Adobe Acrobat tags - h1, h2, etc., they don't appear in the bookmarks when I export and open the document in Acrobat. I am selecting the option for "tagged pdf" during the export process. (The only thing that appears in bookmarks is 2 "Go Back" links.) Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

-Howard
