Import PDF bookmarks

Apply a bookmark JSON file to a PDF (e.g. after editing export).

Why use Import PDF bookmarks?

After exporting and editing bookmark JSON—perhaps renaming sections or rebuilding a table of contents—you can reapply the outline to a PDF. PDFBaba supports multi-level bookmarks and merge/replace behaviors depending on your inputs. No account is required, and uploads are deleted after about one hour. Validate the PDF in a few readers because outline quirks vary across platforms.

Supported files & limits

One PDF plus a bookmark JSON file. The default upload limit is 100MB per file; administrators can raise or lower this via server configuration. Use JSON exported from PDFBaba or compatible tools.

Privacy & data retention

PDFBaba is built for quick tasks: your uploads and generated downloads are kept only long enough to process your request and are automatically deleted after about one hour. We do not require signup for these tools, and we do not use your documents to train AI models. For full details on cookies, analytics, and legal terms, read our Privacy Policy.
