Automatic Bookmarks

[Cathey_Strom@adobeforums.com]

I'm combining a large document collection of PDF files and what I'd like to do is create automatic bookmarks via batch processing. I understand that there's a JavaScript code for creating automatic bookmarks based on the filenames but I don't think this will work as each one of these 6000+ docs has a document summary filled in that I don't want to use for the filename--I need the actual filename as the bookmark. Is this possible to do automatically?
PS: I'm an absolute neophyte when it comes to Javascript.

Well I don't know if you will be happy with a workaround but what you can do is create a list of your documents using your PC DOS prompt.
Import that list into ID on a seperate layer behind the one with the PDF files on it. Create a new style and use it for these file names. Do a page break after each file name so that the next file name is on the following page with the corresponding PDF. When you are done, you can generate a PDF with all the bookmarks.

Thanks so much for the feedback. However, I'm still confused: these docs are already PDFs: they just don't have bookmarks--in some cases I don't have access to the original files. What I've found is that the document summaries in each one prevent me from using the filenames as bookmarks. I wanted to know if anyone had a javascript that allows you to take the pdf files without bookmarks and assign a bookmark to them using the filename as the bookmark.
