An outline is a great way to organize our PDF document. Do you want to create your own outline for your PDF file? In this guide, we will introduce how to create an outline in Flyingbee Reader step by step.
In the Beginning

Portable Document Format (PDF) files,used to distribute a variety of material electronically,are popular because anyone with a PDF reading program may access and view the files.Designed to view and annotate files saved in the PDF, Flyingbee Reader is such a PDF reading Program.

As we all know,if we are looking for a specific section in a PDF file,the search tool will help us a lot to find out each instance of a keyword;however,it would be very slow if we were looking for a common keyword in a large file.In this case,an outline,or in other words,a table of contents,will be a great way to see the structure of the PDF file and speed up our searches.

The Bottom Line

So,why not create your own outline with powerful Flyingbee Reader?
