Digitalbanana Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Is the a Word (2007) to PDF converter that will transfer the internal hyperlinks (bookmarks?) in the Word doc to other parts of the same doc over to PDF? I have a DOC file with clickable table of contents and internal hyperlinks embedded in normal text, but my PDF software looses all these links &, just saves the external www.domain.com links. Thnks for any clues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cybervlad Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Hi, try to use OpenOffice.Writer. This (free) software can easily read (import) MS-Word documents and has excellent engine for PDF-export. I made PDF from ms-word documents using this software with clickable bookmarks (table of content). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip. I tried OO (yesterdays download) but the import of a docx file isn't that easy. In fact my rather complex 140pg Word docx looked a complete mess after opening it in OO. I have since found Click To Convert that seems to work (albeit not free). Almost a flawless result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digitalbanana Posted February 6, 2009 Author Share Posted February 6, 2009 Almost a flawless result. Not quite flawlwess as the Word picture formating within the doc gave mixed output in PDF, some of it unacceptable. Switched to Print2PDF that works better. Both products not free, but easier than Adobe and get results I am looking for, in this case full hyper links, bookmarks and formating of images and borders.

Cybervlad Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Yeah, there is one more trick, free of charge You can set up a "fake" postscript printer and assign it to "file" port. After that you can "print" your document from any windows application and get postscript (*.ps) file as a result. Conversion from postscript to PDF can be done using various free ps2pdf converters. I used this way to convert "simple" documents, but I am not sure about complicated docs with tables, graphics, bookmarks etc. Here two more useful links: 1. PrintPDF converter (virtual printer, you can select freeware version): www.software602.com/products/print2pdf/ 2. Online converter: www.zamzar.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

velveteen Posted July 8, 2011 Share Posted July 8, 2011 Try Nemo Word To PDF, it can preserve tables and hyperlinks (internal or external whatever) accurately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
