When the action wizard appeared, I started it, then clicked “Select a File”, and searched for the file I had downloaded. I downloaded Rick’s plug-in ( here, Borstein, 2013), then went to the Tools page in Adobe Acrobat, and searched for “action”. The answer also pointed the reader to Evermap’s software, if Rick’s plug-in didn’t work. However, much further down the search list was another link, to an Acrobat user forum, where a user question was answered pointing the reader to a plug-in called the “Create Bookmark Report”, created by a helpful developer called Rick Borstein (Hull, n.d.). I felt the price of NZD$310 was a bit steep, when I didn’t know if the plug-in would actually do what I hoped. What put me off was the USD$220 to buy that plug-in (Evermap, 2019). Then recently I found a piece of software that would apparently do that: Evermap’s “AutoBookmark™ Plug-in”. Every now and again I have wanted to print out the bookmarks that I’ve created (usually in case of technology failure), but for a long time, I have not been able to find out how to do so. I will go through the file and bookmark the words or sentences which are relevant. I take notes electronically in pdf files, most often using bookmarks.
