Oct 08, 2013  Have a large size word.docx document. Printworks 2 mac printworks 2 for mac. The table of contents itself is 60 pages long and the document is 1500 pages. Created the link from the table for each of the items (created automatically in Word). Which would be the simplest way to go back from each of the items to its location in the table of contents (where we started from when calling the respective item).

When a document with a table of contents is exported from Word 2016, hyperlinks in the PDF are not kept. I can keep them in Word 2016 for Windows by specifying that the TOC is set to but in Word 2016 for the Mac the option to edit the field is not available when right-clicking on it.

Trying to use Acrobat PDF maker results in the error that Word can't export the file because it's larger than 20 MB. I susccessfully opened the document in Word 2016 for the PC and saved as a PDF with working hyperlinks but the formatting of the document was all messed up (this is a 500 page dissertation, with figures and tables, footnotes, etc.) How do I make Word on the Mac set TOC links as hyperlinks instead of page numbers?

The following macro converts a Table of Contents to Hyperlinks (with or without page #s). Since hyperlinks don't update the way TOC fields do, it's probably best to not do the conversion until the document is otherwise finalised. With a bit more work the macro could restore all of the TOC Style formats without the hyperlink text formatting. As for the layout changes when switching between a PC & Mac, that is normal. Word uses the active printer driver to optimise layout and, if you're changing Word versions as well, the different layout engines can also affect the layout. You could minimise the differences between the PC & Mac environments by making sure you work with the equivalent versions of Word on both and if you make a postscript printer driver the active one (you don't actually need to have one installed) on the PC before saving as a PDF.

If Office is faulty, you will need to reinstall it. Do make sure both it and your OS are fully updated before doing so, jst in case there's a problem in that area. Corrupt documents can often be 'repaired' by inserting a new, empty, paragraph at the very end, copying everything except that new paragraph to a new document based on the same template (headers & footers may need to be copied separately), closing the old document and saving the new one over it.

If the entry is disappearing at that point, this suggests the heading has either been deleted from your document or a Different Style not recognised by the TOC has been applied to it. Cheers Paul Edstein [MS MVP - Word].

Word automatically creates a hyperlink for you when you press Enter or the Spacebar after you type a URL, such as If you want to create a link to text or a picture, or a specific place in a document, you can do that too.
