PDFTableOfContentsItem is one of the PDF Builder objects, and is derived from PDFModel. PDFTableOfContents and PDFTableOfContentsItem work together to manage the table of contents of a PDF document:
-
PDFTableOfContents is the container for the PDFTableOfContentsItem objects.
-
The first-level items (chapters, which are PDFTableOfContentsItem objects) in the table of contents are added using the PDFTableOfContents.AddItem, and the functions in PDFTableOfContent only work on the first-level items in the table of contents.
-
The sub-level items (chapters) in the table of contents are added using the PDFTableOfContentsItem.AddItem.
-
The indexes of the items are auto generated, and are structured by levels. For example, the level-1 chapters start their index at 1; and the sub-items in each chapter start their index at 1 too.
To view the full hierarchy of the PDF Builder objects, find "pdfobject" in the Browser, right-click the object, and then select "Show Hierarchy” in the pop-up menu.
