I was just showing an example of how I wanted the bookmarks to mock the index.
I tried to create bookmarks using the Table of Contents feature but because we have a product name listed more than one time in the catalog in some cases it will show up MULTIPLE Times in the bookmarks and we only need it show up once.
Which is why I wanted a way to make bookmarks based off of the index because it is set up in alphabetical order and is linked to the correct page that the product is on. and is easy for our customers to navigate through being in alphabetical order.
I understand what you are saying about battery and it could only be linked to one page. but the trouble I am having
is actually creating the bookmarks in indesign .
I don't want to have to manually bookmark over 2,000 pages of products. Thats why I have been asking if there is some sort of script or something to base bookmarks off the index. Like you can create bookmarks off of a table of contents.
I started to do bookmarks manually in indesign and ..it takes ALONG time. and also they are not in alphabetical order. because they appear in the same order you put them in. there is no feature that allows you to organize them into ABC order either. only a sort feature that just puts the sub bookmarks in order. You would have to manually alphabatize the top bookmarks....... which is even more time.
