Why are page-breaks not generating bookmarks in PDF on export - as expected.
6 answers
OK... This seems to be - the only way to do it...
1) Confluence does not directly support - inserting markup - into the page <head>
This is most unfortunate...
2) However, it is possible to insert <script> which in theory could lookup the head element and insert the bookmark tags when the page is loaded.
Printing the PDF then - should have the bookmarks automatically generated...
This should work...
I got the idea from here:

If you must load a script tag into head, you can use the following:
<script>
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.src="path/to/file.js";
document.childNodes[0].childNodes[0].appendChild( script );
</script>
I have found that to be reliable during testing in various browsers,
this assumes that the first nodes in the DOM are <html> and <head> ... a
more resilient option might utilise a function like:
<script>
document.getElementByNodeName = function (name, recurse, parent) {
if (typeof(recurse) == "undefined" || recurse == null) recurse = -1;
if (typeof(parent) == "undefined" || parent == null) parent =
document;
for (var i=0; i<parent.childNodes.length; i++) {
if (parent.childNodes[i].nodeName == name.toUpperCase()) return
parent.childNodes[i];
if (recurse != 0) {
document.getElementByNodeName(name, (recurse-1),
parent.childNodes[i]);
}
}
return null;
}
var script = document.createElement("script");
script.src="path/to/file.js";
script.loading = false;
var head = document.getElementByNodeName("HEAD", 3);
if (head != null) {
script.loading = true;
head.appendChild( script );
}
</script>
Please note - I've not tested that code so it may well have a few bugs
