Hello, Chiron If updates are still happening automatically despite our updater being disabled/not running/otherwise configured correctly Than I am afraid the issue lies elsewhere - Most likely your security software. For clarity, our default settings in the updater will never offer an update which w...

Hello, PHK I am glad to see you have a working process and am sorry to say that I am not well versed enough in JS to offer such a solution myself. By extension, this is a bit too niche to see a new feature made explicitly for it, unless we see a large volume of users confirming that they need to do ...

Hello,

Thank you Rakunavi for the assist and the shoutout to that feature request. Hopefully this answer and the upcoming changes help!

Kind regards,

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap

Well, we will have to wait and see what comes, but I am in agreement about normalizing the position of the "which pages to affect" section of the dialogue.

Kind regards,

Hello, rakunavi

Just a quick followup, we do now have a bug ticket for this issue:

RT#7229: Bug: Resize - Scale/Growth dont allow "no-change-offset"

Kind regards,

Hello, again A quick review on our discussions so far (note this is not a confirmation, this is still very much just a concept discussion). I still cannot make any promises, but a possible change we could make to clarify what is happening is re-ordering the modals in this dlg, along with a slight de...

Hello, David.P Perhaps it would help if the "headers" of each category were labeled as: "Desired sheet size" and "Apply to page/range(s)" As for the other suggested text changes, I cannot promise anything, but I can at least forward them to the team. as for this specifi...

Hello, Sorry, was my explanation (and image) previously, not clear on that side of things? The context is important here. The top is you defining the desired size of the output, the lower is picking which pages you want to apply the resize action to. As a more useful example, A very common request, ...

Hello, David.P Some would say the same about our Search, or even just the preferences menu's. But as with anything new, time is all it takes to get used to some changes. This UI will become quite simple to you as time goes on, I promise you. But unfortunately as was already said, simplification cann...

Hello, DocEngineer The simplest method to remove them would likely be to activate the "select fields" tool, then use "Ctrl+A" to select all form fields, and then from the properties pane, click on the tooltip value, change it to one unified value (such as "test") Click ...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap WE did finally find the cause. The "orientation" simply being an option for these settings is the root of the issue. The solution... (this may surprise you) simply remove those options, in practice, they serve no purpose for the "scale/growth" function, bey...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap

Thank you, I have reproduced this issue, and am showing the Dev team, Once I have a reply on whether this is a bug, or if the images in your sample file simply are "indexed" image content, instead of actual monochrome, I will let you know.

Kind regards,

Hello, Lukers We all use smartphones, after all. Hahaha! I don't normally think too far outside of the work zone with my replies, but somehow this comment reminded me of a certain "don't you guys have smartphones?" statement that was made at an infamous convention a few years ago. You took...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap Thank you for that report, I have managed to reproduce this issue. The strangest part is how it is not even using the input value of +5.5cm on either side, instead only adding 11 cm to the incorrect dimension? This is now in the hands of the Dev team for another investigation....

Hello, Mathew

Thank you for the post, I have forwarded this on directly to the Dev team for comments. As soon as we hear back from them we will post here.

Kind regards,

Hello, I dont see why there is a need for a special custom tool to perform this. The "Save as" action itself will keep the newly saved copy of the file open after saving. In practice, all you need to do is: 1. Save normal file (comments still present) 2. Open comments pane (Ctrl_M) 3. in c...

Hello, vivid_rabbit Thank you for the report, as powerful as such a function would be, implementation of this will unfortunately have to wait. This will be heavily dependent on the "visual content ordering" system which the dev team is working on. Without that functionality, offering the k...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap Does this work for you? Because I cannot get it to work for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. I've added a video below I think you may have misunderstood, What I described is shown working in the video you sent. After you click "OK" resulting in the dlg closing, t...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap Could I possibly ask for a sample file. I believe it is possible for CCITT group4 formatted images to be classified as "indexed" instead of "monochrome" in some circumstances, and would be keen to see your file to speak with the Dev team on if this is the c...

Hello, David.P If you do not have admin rights, configuring crash logging would certainly be difficult. If you can, I would suggest you reach out to the admin who does have those rights and ask them to get it setup for you. The folders you showed there look about standard for the application while r...

Hello, MedBooster

I am terribly sorry, I made a ticket for this back on the 26th, and forgot to post about it! Here is the ticket number:

RT#7070: FR: Sort "selected" bookmarks

As usual, I cannot offer a timeline, but the Dev team will try to get it in when possible.

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster I am unsure how our competitors choose to name their functions, so it is very possible they have simply named their "optimization" function "compression" arbitrarily. However, in practice, while the terms are similar, they are not quite the same. As an example, ...

Hello, MedBooster I am glad to see you excited for the future and for the holidays. Just remember, Not even Santa can deliver everything on your Christmas list. If any of these items have been marked rejected in the past, they are unlikely to see a change now, while those items that have been accept...

Hello, mCHSNUg5Pz8cPap Indeed, it is hard to say which would be better. Considering the REsize dialogues ability to retain the last used settings (meaning if you choose "by page > selected/current", that option will remain in place) You can achieve the previous handling without needing to ...

Hello, MedBooster Sorry for the delay, We usually see about 20-45 new topics in a week, and this past week that has somehow ballooned to over 100 new topics... all with active discussions ongoing. Some items, like those with JS which I am not very fluent in, were left by the wayside. Having a chance...

Hello, MedBooster You are correct, I would not recommend adding a new page to the Stamp (Adding a new blank page is still "inserting" a page which is on the list), as before, there is special metadata that cannot be added to the file when editing in this way. Even if it sometimes works, it...

Hello, Puffolino

At this time I am afraid that we do not have a custom submenu item which can be added to the UI, and it is unfortunately not likely to become a priority anytime soon.

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster Path objects do not contain text, and there is no relation or way to check for a similar pattern so no, there is no way to discern this, force a split to occur, or delete only one "side" of the content. The best way I can think of to somewhat emulate this assuming that yo...

Hello, yogi108

I am sorry to say that I do not believe that JS is able to influence the default values of various commands resultant window, no... Those changes would need to be done manually.

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster I am not sure what you mean here. Single left clicking on a style does select that style for use currently (below is an animation): PDFXEdit_QnuFKQyvwy.gif Am I misunderstanding? As for #2, zoom control has come up for discussion in the past, but is not a priority at this time. Thi...

Hello, MedBooster

There are a few options:
1. You could activate the "select text" tool, and then press ctrl_A to select all.
2. You could also open the Content pane, and use the "options > select > text" function.

I hope it helps!

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster The supported formats are hardcoded at the moment, there is no relation to other settings. This request has been passed along to the Dev team and is awaiting approval. Regarding the latter mention of AM/PM, It is a stylistic item, but I do not believe there is any official format t...

Hello, MedBooster Paths do not have any system in place to associate one to another like Fillable form fields would, no. Each path is a distinctly separate oject form one another. I guess you're not supposed to duplicate pages... when creating new dynamic stamps.... I don't mean to be blunt, but I'm...

Hello, MedBooster Directly loading in previous stamps is not possible at this time. It is intended as a "new stamp creator", and is intentionally quite simplified. I am discussing this by the Dev team, but so far they have not been welcoming of the idea. [Edit]: I have some good news and s...

Hello, MedBooster

I can run it by the dev team, but I cannot make any promises in that regard.

[Edit]:

RT#7220: FR: "Color" tray - Show "recently used" colors category.

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster 1. Unlikely, as for the vast majority of users, the RGB configuration is much more easily digestible, but I will pass it on. 2. Likely impossible for the reason your suspect, but it will be passed on. 3. This one somewhat already exists. Once you have a custom color in place, it ap...

Hello, MedBooster While blend modes can be applied to various content types, including text and images, achieving a gradient, even with them, would be difficult and rather restrictive to your content configuration. In practice, the only way to achieve this I could see was the multiply blend mode, us...

Hello, galen Unfortunately no, these still do not exist in the PDF Spec. The Spec takes a very long time to make changes, and given the rate of change within the spec, I do not expect this to come along anytime soon, I am very sorry to say. It will likely still be many more years still before we hea...

Hello, MedBooster 1. You can reset only one tab, or just one toolbar, by selecting it in the customize toolbars menu, and clicking "reset" (or you can use reset all to reset all tabs and toolbars): image.png For the latter portion, "presets" and "styles" are separate it...

Hello, Sir_Stig Unfortunatley, Shift is the toggle for Exclusive mode as well. The way around this in cases when you need to start something from a location where something already exists is to start drawing the object before pressing shift. It does not matter when you press shift, as long as you ar...

Hello, masster We do already offer quite extensive search functions, note that these are not all enabled by default: image.png To address each item by bullet point: Javascripts - As far as I know, the text content of the script itself cannot be searched for. Forms - The "content" of fields...

Hello, PHK For the first item, the simplest and more common examples are the MS Office suite, but there are many others, Most CAD applications, some older web browsers, etc etc. For the second item, Yes, in fact, you can even configure the Standard printer to save to a default location, and then lau...

Hello, PHK I am sorry to say that there will not be changes coming in that area anytime soon. As Stefan said, stamps are not designed to be manipulated frequently, they are very much intended as a "set and forget" kind of system, even the "dynamic" creations. If you are editing a...

Hello, MedBooster

I cant make any promises, but I have passed the idea along for consideration.

Kind regards,

Hello, MedBooster 1) The "arrange" tools are available from the right click context menu: image.png (Note that "fit to width" is specific to text comments, and cannot be applied to Form fields due to the nature of how their data is stored and presented) 2) Stamp templates are ava...

Hello, MedBooster My apologies for the misunderstanding. It is rather unlikely that we will be adding any hotkeys for those items specifically. I am fairly certain that it has come up in the past and was rejected, but as it has been some time, I will broach the subject again just incase minds have c...
