Description

Adds a bookmark to the global outline tree of the document.

Parent can be a handle of another bookmark if it should be added as a child of this bookmark. If Parent is set to -1 the bookmark is added as a root node.
DestPage specifies the page that should be opened when clicking on the bookmark. The parameter can be set to a page number that does not yet exist. If the page does not exist when closing file then it is adjusted to page number 1.
The parameter Open specifies whether a bookmark node should appear open or closed when it contains children. When a bookmark contains no children then this parameter should be set to false.
