Hi Bob,

What I want is when my viewer opens the PDF (I generated from Docbook) for the 
first time, it presents the user with the table of contents (the 'index' 
according to evince) in a panel on the left hand side.

This gives the user an overview of the document; without this appearing on 
initial view, a user may not know it exists.

Something like this: http://blog.rockymountaintraining.com/?p=383

r,

Hi Richard,
Do you mean you want to replace the PDF bookmarks with a 
back-of-the-book index in the left pane?

Hi 
All,

Is there a switch I can throw to force the PDF that is generated to 
default to displaying the index as a (left-hand) side bar?

The best I 
could find from my searching was: 
http://wiki.apache.org/xmlgraphics-fop/ExtensionsForPdf but I am unsure how to 
interpret this page. Any help would be gratefully 
appreciated!

cheers,
Richard
