You can use the table of contents in Word as a bookmark in your interactive PDF document. 

The prerequisite is that you insert a custom table of contents via the "References" tab and select the checkbox for "Links instead of page numbers". 

Next, save the Word file as a PDF. To do this, in Word, select "File > Save As" and choose the "PDF" file type. The PDF function is also available as a printer option via the "Print" command in the same tab.

The bookmarks in your PDF document are now ready for use. They allow you to jump from one outline point to another within the document.

We will show you further tips on how to effectively prepare your Word document for academic writing in the course Fit for Word.
