Testing shows sub addresses can be used to find
a. PDF bookmarks generated automatically from headings.
b. Bookmark names imported from Word.
c. Destinations created within a PDF.
Care needs to be taken when a, b, or c share a name. The link will take the user to the type with the highest priority.
The change request can be refined to enable the name and range of every Word bookmark to be visible following export to a PDF.

When adding a new range name the user should be warned if that name is already in use, and given an opportunity to use a different name.
