Is there a way to create links within Preview Document to other locations within the same document? I've googled this & can only find a way to create links to websites. I also see a way to add Bookmarks, but I don't see any obvious way to build links to those bookmarks within the document (aside from using the sidebar)

I received a document that has a non-clickable Table of contents. I'd like to make each link take me to the correct page in the document, but I'm not seeing any way to do that.

I can do it in Adobe on my work computer if need be, but I'm off work until the 5th, and figured I could knock this out while I'm on PTO.

Thanks in advance.

Preview is a PDF viewer with ability to add annotations. It is not a full PDF editor.

Sadly, not without buying an expensive PDF editor.

It is possible that your work Adobe license will work on your home Mac - have you tried it?

On occasion I use Nitro PDF Pro which I believe can create tables of contents.
