Hello,
I am attaching sample fle:
The file was created in PDF-XChange Editor 9.4 and there I added bookmark called BookmarkFromPDFEditor.
The file was also on Android device where I used Adobe Acrobat 22.8 to create one more bookmark called BookmarkAddedOnAndroid.
Now on Android I see both bookmarks, but the one from Windows is on Table of Contents.
On Windows, I do not see BookmarkAddedOnAndroid, cannot find it anywhere in PDF-XChange.
Can you hint me on how can I add bookmarks on Android that would be available on PDF-Xchange?
Bookmarks not the same on Windows and Android

Hello mwsnw,
I just tested your PDF with Adobe's products on desktop - and I can't see the android bookmark in there either.
Likely the android app is not creating proper bookmarks as defined in the PDF specification.
Kind regards,
Stefan

Hello mwsnw,
Apparently they are not true bookmarks that the Android reader creates but some 'remember me' custom (and outside of the specification) objects that they create. Sorry that I could not help further but this does look like an issue with the mobile app, and not the PDF file we've created.
Kind regards,
Stefan
