How to bookmark a PDF document.
- Open a PDF to load its existing bookmarks.
- Rename, add, reorder, or nest entries and set their target pages.
- Save bookmarks into your PDF or export a reusable JSON outline.
Know your PDF tool.
Nested outlines, page destinations, and JSON import and export. Here’s how to get a useful result with PDF Bookmark Editor.
Organize a PDF with bookmarks
A PDF bookmark is a clickable outline entry that jumps to a page. Use the editor to structure manuals, reports, and course materials into chapters and subsections. Open your document to load existing entries, or add a bookmark and give it a descriptive title and destination page.
Build an outline you can reuse
Reorder entries, nest related sections, and preview destination pages before saving. Download the PDF to embed your outline, or export JSON to reuse the structure. Check imported page numbers whenever the document changes. Automatic heading detection is available in the separate generator.
For longer documents with headings, create PDF bookmarks automatically, then review the outline.
PDF Bookmark Editor FAQs.
How to create or add bookmarks to a PDF?
Open the document in PDF Bookmark Editor and click Add bookmark. Enter a descriptive title and choose the destination page. Add more entries, reorder or nest them as needed, then click Download PDF. The downloaded copy contains clickable outline entries for navigation in PDF readers that support bookmarks.
How to edit PDF bookmarks?
Open a PDF to load its existing page bookmarks, then change titles, destination pages, or nesting levels in the outline controls. Use the move buttons to reorder entries and preview their destinations. Download the PDF to embed your changes. For a first draft based on headings, try the Auto Bookmark Generator.
How to delete PDF bookmarks?
Open your PDF and use Remove bookmark beside an outline entry to delete it. Repeat for other unwanted entries, or use Undo if you need to reverse a recent outline change. Download the PDF to save the revised bookmarks. Removing a bookmark removes its navigation entry, not the destination page.
How to open a PDF with bookmarks showing?
Open the file in a PDF reader that supports outlines and choose its Bookmarks or Outline sidebar. This editor requests that the bookmark panel open when you download a PDF with bookmarks. The reader controls whether that preference is honored, so some apps still require you to open the panel manually.
How to save a PDF with bookmarks showing?
Create or edit your outline, then choose Download PDF. When the outline contains bookmarks, the saved file includes the standard PDF preference to show its outline panel on opening. Compatible readers may honor that setting; others use their own sidebar preferences. Export JSON alone does not embed bookmarks in the PDF.
How to print a PDF with bookmarks?
PDF bookmarks are navigation entries, so they do not appear on the printed pages. You can print the document using your PDF reader, but this editor does not print a bookmark list or generate a visible table of contents. Its downloads preserve the outline for on-screen navigation in compatible readers.
Can you bookmark a PDF for free?
Yes. Add, rename, delete, reorder, and nest PDF bookmarks here for free without an account or watermark. Your document is processed in your browser. Download the PDF to save the embedded outline, or export JSON to reuse it. Check page destinations when importing an outline into a different document.
