TPL_KUNENA_MESSAGE_CREATED PDF-manual with content structure

Hi Jeti,

The manual in PDF format is very helpful but I miss a real useful feature.
There is no content structure available only the page names/numbers, which is not very helpful.
I don't know which software is used to edit the manual and generate the PDF but I wonder if you could include the contents structure in the PDF structure view.
This would speed up navigating in the PDF significantly since you can jump directly to the desired function without looking at the contents page.

Thanks for your great work until now

Best regards

Hi,

I'd like to update this request and give an example how it can be done nicely.
This is a screenshot showing a PDF manual of a graupner mc22s with navigation structure:

This shows the current DC-16 manual without navigation structure. It is really hard to find the items. You first have to go to the contents page, figure out the page number and enter the page number (+1) to get to the desired content item.

The PDF was created using a Corel PDF engine. I think even this engine supports the navigation structure based on the contents.

Best regards
