    Have you had any luck with this? When exporting a PDF from ArcGIS Pro "List Layers for Visible Pages" is set as the default so it seems it is possible. I just can't figure out how to do it outside of ArcGIS though.

    Opening the PDF that was exported from ArcGIS Pro in Notepad I found the following line which seems to be what controls this setting:
    <</Metadata 363 0 R/OCProperties<</D<</ListMode/VisiblePages/Name(Layers Tree)/Order.......

    In a PDF that lists all layers this line is:
    <</Metadata 2 0 R/OCProperties<</D<</OFF[]/Order.......

    I don't know anything about editing PDFs though so I am not sure how to properly add this into other PDFs.
