4 Make bookmark text easy to identify
The bookmark pane is relatively small
and often not wide enough to display complete headings. Therefore,
the more meaningful text can be displayed in this limited space,
the better.
You can shorten or omit insignificant
or non-unique text at the beginning of the bookmark (such as
The, Chapter, Appendix). For example,
Chapter 3: Scanning can be changed to 3: Scanning
and Appendix B: Headers & Libraries can be changed
to B: Headers & Libraries). This can be done automatically
with the Remove redundant bookmark start and Change
bookmark start functions (Bmk Start tab).
The Remove paragraph numbering
function (Bmk Functions tab) makes it easy to strip heading numbers
from bookmark text -- because multi-level numbering, particularly
in lower-level bookmarks (which have more digits and less space
due to indentation), may use a significant part of the bookmark
pane.
You may have chapter numbers set up as
separate paragraphs, required by your document design. In this
case you will either have separate bookmarks for chapter numbers,
or forego the chapter number -- neither of which is desired.
The Merge separate number + title bookmarks function (Bmk
Functions tab) will automatically merge the chapter bookmark
with the following title bookmark, so that instead of two separate
bookmarks, one saying "3" (or "Chapter 3")
and the next one saying "Ensuring Consistent Color",
you have "3: Ensuring Consistent Color".
