I have a fair sized document using Word Mac 2011. The document uses Headings 1 and 2. I created a table of contents using the TOC generator - it worked perfectly and inserted the links so that if you click on a TOC entry it jumps to that section of the document.



The problem is converting to PDF. When I go to the TOC links do not work.

I've tried saving as PDF from word, converting to PDF using web converters, emailing the file to myself and using a PC to convert to PDF. Nothing works.

Any help would be appreciated.

Take a look at this link (similar to yours). Refer to the very last entry for his solution, it may be your solution as well.

I was able to solve this by manually entering links from the TOC line items to the appropriate headings. Before I was relying on the links automatically generated by word when I created the TOC.

Then I opened the document on a Windows machine and saved as PDF and the links stuck (there are issues with links in Word Mac when converting to PDF).
