ParticipantThanks! I’ll try that too! I’m the only one who ever touches the TOC, so it’s not likely to mess anyone else up. :)
Thanks, Phyllis

ParticipantThanks. Maybe I’ll set up a separate TOC for the Bookmarks, but I was trying to make one thing do both! I work on a publication that’s constantly changing up until the minute we go to press. Every time I update the TOC, it’s convenient to have my Bookmarks updating too. The latter get confusing if they’re not organized into folders (hence the need for the heading). I’ll play around with some options though and maybe generate those separately.
BTW, Creative Pro Week was great!!! I’m still using my notes and I’ve been watching some of the videos as well. :)
Thanks, Phyllis

ParticipantI’ll give that a try when I can. Right now there are too many pages and too little time. :-( But I don’t recall this ever being an issue in the past. I’ve changed bleeds on documents many times without ever having a question of margins. Why would it matter when the bleed and slug are outside the page?
Phyllis Utter
ParticipantThanks for the response! If I make *any* adjustments to the slug or the bleed, I get the error message that “This page size does not fit with the current margin and column settings. Select the appropriate pages in the Pages panel and then adjust using the Margins and Columns dialog box.” That error message is the same even if I’m decreasing the bleed (I was trying to set a slug of 3p). And I think it may be because there are some weird margin settings on certain pages, but in the past I could adjust the bleed and slug of a document regardless of what the margin settings were. They weren’t interdependent as far as I could tell. I’m glad I put enough bleed as I think I’d have to rebuild the document if I didn’t. As it is, I can’t add the slug that the printer would have liked.

ParticipantAnd I just discovered this method: https://www.w3pedia.com/uk/convert-text-to-outlines-in-adobe-acrobat So I’ll use that. But I’d appreciate any input on problems to look out for! I seriously haven’t seen this request in years and years. And I’d try to discuss it with the company doing the printing, but we have a language barrier problem that would make the finer details difficult to discuss. :-(

ParticipantAnd I’m finally in the process of printing this booklet! The company in Europe has asked me to convert all fonts to outlines in the PDF. It’s been YEARS since I’ve seen a printer request that. Does anyone know how to do this in Acrobat any more? I remember I used to search on “outlines” inside the Preflight dialog in Acrobat, but that option doesn’t seem to exist now. Does anyone know if it’s still buried in there somewhere? And anybody know what kind of problems to look out for with this kind of conversion? I’m working on an 84-page booklet.
