Page thumbnails and bookmarks
About page thumbnails
Page thumbnails
are miniature previews of the pages in a document. You can use page thumbnails in Acrobat to jump
quickly to a selected page or to adjust the view of the page.
When you move, copy, or delete a page thumbnail, you actually move, copy, or delete the corresponding page.
Create page thumbnails
Because page thumbnails increase file size, they are not automatically created. After you create page thumbnails, you
can embed them in the PDF. Embedding prevents the page thumbnails from redrawing each time you click the Pages
button, often a time-consuming process. Embedded page thumbnails won’t reflect changes that you make to
document pages until you unembed the page thumbnails.
