A couple of weeks ago, converting Word to PDF added microscopic numbers in
front of all the headings and hyperlinks in the documents. Looks like a
micro-dot to the naked eye, but when zoomed in, you can see 0B, 1B, 2B, etc.
Can't figure out what is causing them to be generated during the conversion
from Word 2010/Windows to PDF, and can't seem to find anything online
either.
It's affecting accessibility because they are voiced.
Example: the heading is "Using Custom Areas" and the conversion puts "1B" in
front of it. This is voiced as "1 busing custom areas."
Any Acrobat gurus out there know what's causing this? I've reset my PDF
conversion settings to default in hopes it would clear out any hidden
settings I did, but that isn't solving the problem.
Thanks,

Does the document have a Table of Contents generated by Word's TOC
generator by chance?
