InDesign How-to Video: Using Bookmarks to Navigate Long Documents in InDesign
Mike Rankin shows how to use interactive bookmarks to navigate inside long InDesign documents.
In this week’s InDesignSecrets video, Mike Rankin demonstrates how to use InDesign’s bookmarks to create a navigation system right within the InDesign file itself. He shows how to create bookmarks automatically with the table of contents feature and also how to manually add other navigation points within the document. Navigating around an InDesign document is a breeze with this set up.
