How do you create a PDF with sidebar text?
I want to create a PDF from Python.
I noticed that some pdfs have text in the sidebar that allows you to see the context in which search terms appear.
eg. dictionary search
Sidebar view:
Page 10 Assigning a value to an existing dictionary key simply replaces the old value with the new one.
How it's done?
Is there a way to convert existing PDFs to render this sidebar text?
