Hi community,

I am using UltmatePDF and want to generate PDF bookmarks. Is upgraded to version 15.0 of the Ultimate PDF component.


My page looks like this:

As you can see I also have two printlayout blocks. Unfortunately only for the h1 and h2 tag in the first block a bookmark is generated. And not for the second block.

Is this a known limitation or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Joris. That is currently a limitation of Ultimate PDF.

I will investigate if we can improve this on a future version.

Hi Leonardo, 

It has been almost a year since Joris raised this issue. Did you get a chance to look into it? 

As you might be aware, EU has strict new WCAG accessibility guidelines and the PDFs generated using Ultimate PDF has become non-compliant because of this issue. We have many customer facing projects which use this component and we really love this component due to its feature packed reliability and simplicity of use.

Your kind attention to this matter will be much appreciated.

Kind regards,

Shounak

Thanks Leonardo,

For clearing up the issue. It would be great if we we could structure the documents, without having to restructure them big time. 

I am very much interested in the outcome of your investigation.

Cheers Joris

Hi @Leonardo Fernandes ,

Did you already had the opportunity to investigate the improvement? 

The reason for the two or more PrintLayout blocks because of different headers and footers on the first and subsequent pages. For the header we tried the HideHeaderOnFirstPage. But then we cannot use the page number count on the first page. But then we still have no option to have different footer on the first page.

I think we really want to use PDF bookmarks on the second and following PrintLayout blocks. Hope you will come up with something smart.
