Adobe acrobat table of contents create

As I mentioned in the link provided above, this can be done using a script. The one I've developed (which is paid-for) can be found here, if you're interested: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Create Table Of Contents (TOC) in a PDF file from Bookmarks

There is nothing to read about TOC or bookmarks.

Without buying a script mentioned by Try67, you can't in Acrobat with its existing tools.

Generally, TOCs are made inside the source file (such as Word or Adobe InDesign) and when the PDF is exported, the TOC is already in the PDF.

So you have 2 choices:

Purchase a script to do it in Acrobat, or
Go back to the source document, create the TOC with its TOC utility, and re-export a new PDF that contains the TOC.
