Merging documents with bookmarks | iText Knowledge Base

This example was originally written in answer to the question How to merge PDFs and add bookmarks? for iText 5.

The code here is a direct port from the iText 5 code. Merging documents while maintaining bookmarks in iText 7 and later versions is done automatically when using the PdfMerger (Java/.NET) class.
