Generating Document Outline

Post by listanand »

Hello everyone,

I am new to LaTeX, so please bear with me :)

I want to generate a document outline in the final PDF that gets produced. Something like this: http://www.actiprosoftware.com/products ... utline.gif

The above is just an example. The outline I want should obviously show the contents of my document. How can I do this? I am using MikTex on Windows XP.

Thanks in advance.

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

Do you mean in the document itself or in the PDF bookmarks? The later is easy (hyperref deals with everything for you).
