Bulk import/export of links, destinations, bookmarks

[ddrummer68]

Hello,

I am a heavy user of Acrobat pro, and particularly an AutoBookmark add-in that allow me to work with an almost unlimited number of links, destinations, and bookmarks.

I've used Acrobat's Action Wizard to create scripts. For example, one script does the following to the target files:

- crops every page to a preset size
- adds watermarks to every page,
- imports links from a text file,
- flattens the layers
- saves the file with a new name

I have a similar action that imports named destinations from text file as well. This is a huge time saver for me and my team. Is there anything similar in the Pro version of PDF-XChange? It looks like everything is possible, except perhaps the importing of links and destinations.

Thanks,
Bobby

Hello Bobby,

Pretty much all of the below can be done using JS code. The only problem is accessing the external file with the link - JS might not be able to do that due to security restrictions.

We are working on a plug-ins SDK, which will allow the creation of third party plug-ins for our Editor, so maybe then the AutoBookmark creators would be able to make a version for our Editor as well. Such a plug-in will have access to the external text file to load your links.

Regards,
Stefan
