(1) Open up Microsoft Word. If Word and Acrobat are installed on your
machine correctly, there should be an "Adobe PDF" menu on your Word
menubar.
(2) Select "Change Conversion Settings" from the "Adobe PDF" menu entry.
(3) Click the "Word" tab on the resulting "Acrobat PDFMaker" dialog box.
(4) Make sure that "Convert cross-references and table of contents to
links" is checked.
