That's as simple as referencing more bookmarks in the same macro. For example:

Code:

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark1").Range.Font.Hidden = CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark2").Range.Font.Hidden = CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark3").Range.Font.Hidden = CheckBox1.Value
End Sub

You can even invert the action, so the hidden state is opposite whatever the checkbox state is:

Code:

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark1").Range.Font.Hidden = Not CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark2").Range.Font.Hidden = Not CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark3").Range.Font.Hidden = Not CheckBox1.Value
End Sub

and you can mix the two together:

Code:

Private Sub CheckBox1_Click()
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark1").Range.Font.Hidden = CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark2").Range.Font.Hidden = CheckBox1.Value
ActiveDocument.Bookmarks("Bookmark3").Range.Font.Hidden = Not CheckBox1.Value
End Sub
