Embed chapters/index in PDF

[Jon Ljunggren]

Hi all!

Is there a way to insert/embed chapters/bookmarks/index to a pdf
through Dompdf (or some other pdflibrary that can work with dompdf)?
Right now I'm using Dompdf and Fpdf to create a separate index page,
but it would be so much better to have it embedded. Do You have any
tips or suggestions?

Thanks!

There is not a built-in way to create an index or TOC with dompdf. But you're in luck ... I worked out a way to do this using inline script. See the following sample in my debug helper:
http://eclecticgeek.com/dompdf/debug.php?identifier=toc-v0.6.x

The above sample creates a TOC, but with a few minor modifications you could create an index instead. The main limitation right now is that TOC/index can't be more than one page (at least, not without a lot more work on your part).
