I have a data dictionary report in Enterprise Architect (same as in this question: How can I exclude a "report.specification" from a Report in Enterprise Architect?) and I would like a table of contents that is clickable (has links).
The current report does generate bookmarks, but if it is possible, I'd like to have a "live" Table of Contents in the output PDF.
This isn't possible in EA right now
Closest developper response I could get for this issue is this forum post:
I talked with Sparx on this topic as I had the same question.
Their response...
"The 3rd party add-in we use for generating these documents does not support the TOC hyperlinking - so unfortunately the only alternative is to open the document in another application like Open Office or Word and simply right-click and update the TOC."
You can always open the Document in Word or Adobe Reader and use the Navigation Pane:
(Word 2013)
1. Click View on the ribbon
2. In the show Section, click Navigation Pane
(Acrobat Reader)
Use the Bookmarks Pane
Also, I find that when generated as a .rtf or .pdf report, the Table of Contents generates with the wrong Style, messing with the Navigation Pane. Generating the Document in Word format solves this issue
Another Solution:
You can generate the report without the table of contents with Word, create the table of contents when generated and then export it to whatever format you need
Edit: After some digging, I found that in Word, you can update the TOC and then ctrl+click the numbers to jump pages.
You cannot do this with a pdf
