Hi Bart,

FemFum have developed a PostScript Applet to extract PDF Bookmarks via
Acrobat Distiller.

At the moment this version extracts all the Bookmarks inside the
PDF
files found in your 'Hot Folder' directory in TXT format. In a few days
I will finish a Demo that extract the Bookmarks in PDF format preserving
all the original links and the Bookmarks Pane design appearance.

If you are interested in this tool e-mail me off list.

Hope this helps,
