This allows you to create a simple text file:
Code:
1 Introduction
10 Chapter 1
+10 Chapter 1, Part A
+25 Chapter 1, Part B
++25 Chapter 1, Part B, Subsection 1
++27 Chapter 1, Part B, Subsection 2
+30 Chapter 1, Part C
50 Chapter 2
70 Chapter 3
and insert that as PDF bookmarks.
You can read more details in his "List of Command-Line Options" (and check the above thread too, willus has tons of answers about his program there). |
If all you need to do is add a TOC/bookmarks,
Coherent PDF (cpdf) is a better tool than k2pdfopt. It's an excellent PDF command-line tool to have in your arsenal--it can split, merge, add watermarks, etc., and it's super fast.
See this link.
To list existing bookmarks:
cpdf -list-bookmarks input.pdf
0 "Part 1" 1 open
1 "Part 1A" 2
2 "Part 1B" 3
0 "Part 2" 4
1 "Part 2a" 5
I presume "open" is the bookmark you want the file to open to by default.
To add bookmarks:
cpdf -add-bookmarks bookmarks.txt input.pdf -o output.pdf
