3.6.1. Bookmarking in Batch
To create a batch process for Bookmarks, follow these steps:
1. Open Adobe Acrobat.
2. In Acrobat 5.0, from the file menu go to ‘File > Batch Processing’ to open the
Batch Processing dialog.
In Acrobat 6.0 Professional, from the file menu go to ‘Plug-Ins > ARTS PDF
Aerialist > Productivity > Batch Processing’ to open the Batch Processing
dialog.
3. Create a New Sequence; choose a meaningful name for the new sequence.
You will now be taken to the Batch Edit Sequence dialog.
4. Click “Select Commands”; choose the Bookmark command you wish to
perform from the list of commands.
5. Click “Add” to add it to the batch sequence.
Note: You can add more than one function to a single batch sequence – for instance, you
could create a batch sequence that deleted all bookmarks before adding new ones. You
can also import saved bookmark profiles in both the Add and Build Bookmark functions,
using the “Import” command.
6. Click “Edit” to open up the Bookmark function’s dialog. Once you have
supplied the details to the function, click “OK”.
7. Select what to run the batch sequence on; a selected file/folder, the file
currently open in Acrobat, or a file specified when the sequence is run.
8. Select the output location of the process file/folder.
9. Finish filling out the properties of the batch sequence, then click “OK”.
10. You can now run or edit you batch sequence from Acrobat’s file menu, ‘File >
Batch Processing’.
You can also create a toolbar button that automatically runs the batch sequence with
the Productivity feature.
Note: Acrobat’s Batch Processing does not allow you to perform other functions in Acrobat
whilst it is open, so if you are creating a batch sequence that uses the Build Bookmark
function, it is generally best to have already created and saved your Bookmark properties.
Once you open Batch Processing, simply Import your saved properties.
