I have a question about compiling for PDF; my apologies if it’s been answered elsewhere, but I can’t seem to find it.My question is about the table of contents in a PDF: when you work with PDFs, they often have a table of contents displayed in a sidebar to allow you to click through the document.
How can I create this kind of table of contents in a PDF document when compiling to PDF in Scrivener? In this case I’m not referring to or using Scrivener’s impressive ability to create a table of contents (copy documents as TOC, etc.), Is having a Table of Contents within Scrivener necessary for this task?
I just want the PDF document I’ve compiled from a bunch of ‘sections’, ‘sub headings’ and ‘headings’ documents to more or less replicate the binder structure in Scrivener in the compiled PDF’s table of contents. When I go to compile → edit format → PDF Settings, “Generate PDF outline” is selected, but doesn’t seem to be doing what I might expect it to.
Hopefully I’ve phrased my question/dilemma in a way that is clear; any help would be appreciated! Thanks.
