#### 15.1.3 Constraining the number of bookmarks in Word

By default, DITA2Go includes bookmarks in Word for all references between documents, and for all index ranges. However, Word has a limit of 16,379 bookmarks per document. If you are converting a very large document with many references, you might need to reduce the number of bookmarks.

To omit bookmarks in Word for index ranges:

    [WordOptions]
    BookmarkIXRanges = No

To omit bookmarks in Word for interfile references;

    [WordOptions]
    ExternalXrefs = No

Omitting unneeded related links can drastically reduce the number of bookmarks. For example, to produce the DITA2Go User's Guide, all but the child links had to go:

    [RelatedLinks]
    AppendLinksToTopics = Yes
    GeneratePrevNext = No
    GenerateParentChild = Yes
    GenerateSiblings = No
    UsePrevNext = No
    UseParent = No
    UseChildren = No
    UseSiblings = No
    UseAncestors = No
    UseDescendants = No
    UseCousins = No
    UseFriends = No
    UseRelatedDivider = No

See §13.3 Appending links to topics.
