HELP ANYONE,

   When merging pdf files or stamping pages of a pdf file that contains bookmarks that were created using Acrobat Pro v6.0 the newly created pdf file doesn't contain the bookmarks. Does anyone have any ideas? I would greatly appreciate any help...

Thanks,

Curtis

Hi Curtis!

It's always the same ...
An example for the forum is better ;-)

Best regards,
Ingo

Curtis,

merging documents using MergeDocument method does not merge bookmarks. You have to do this by hand using the methods offered by QuickPDF. 
This is not a bug but a "gap" in the current implementation. One problem is: bookmarks are not data on page level but data on document level: how to decide where to place the new bookmarks: If you have some TOC bookmarks then it's more or less easy: simply add it to an existing TOC. But what if the bookmarks are global ones (e.g. links to web pages or so)? In this case I would expect to get them added : yes where? Mostly on the end but not always:

Authors web page 1
TOC1
Weblink1a
Weblink1b

merges with

Authors web page 2
TOC2
Weblink2a
Weblink2b

==> (expected by me)
Authors web page 1
Authors web page 2
TOC1
TOC2
WebLink1a
WebLink1b
WebLink2a
WebLink2b

best regards,
Uli
