I want to use Bookmarks because creating links may not work once I move the docs from my computer to CD. Do I need to create a PDF first? Once I have a word or page to book mark, how do I create and then to make it work?
Having lots & lots of difficulties. would you please help me?

First off, moving files around will cause Bookark actions to become dead links just the same as when using links. The way to approach your project is to create all links (and bookmarks) on your hard drive with files organized in folders. When you're ready to write the CD, copy all the folders (without rearranging files) to your CD and burn it. All the links will be preserved on the CD.

When deciding whether to use a link, form field, or Bookmark in the PDF files, just design the links that work best for the end user. In some case it may be links, in other cases bookmarks may work best.
