Re: [docbook-apps] Bookmarks not generated when using FOP -> PS

Yes, that is what I would expect.  I 
don't think there is a way to embed bookmarks in PostScript that can be 
translated to PDF bookmarks.

 

But if you are only doing this for the 
graphics, do you have access to Adobe Illustrator? 
It can open an EPS and save it as SVG format.  Perhaps there 
are other conversion tools out there?

Subject: [docbook-apps] Bookmarks not 
  generated when using FOP -> PS

  

  

  
If I format .fo documents to .pdf. 
  I get a table of contents in the form of PDF bookmarks. If I format .fo to .ps 
  and then distill the .ps to .pdf using Acrobat distiller, my resultant .pdf 
  has no bookmarks.

  
 

  
Is this what you’d expect?  
  Is it possible to get FOP to work its magic and embed the ToC in the ps file 
  so that it gets translated (or passes through) the distillation 
  process?

  
 

  
The reason I’m doing this is 
  because I have some documents with vector graphics in them and FOP only 
  supports SVG for output to pdf.  I can’t currently create these graphics 
  in SVG and so have produces them as .eps files.  FOP will put the .eps 
  files into the .ps output and I can then distill .ps -> .pdf.  My 
  vector graphics are included, but, unfortunately, my bookmark ToC is 
  not.
