+1 for this.

Current standard colors are somehow cluttered.

In comparison, Microsoft Word colors list is pretty clean

Hi, I also wonder how the example file File_rendering issue.pdf has been made ? It seems to be created with PDF-XChange Editor, not with Adobe (see Document Properties). It would be interesting to see the original OCR'ed pdf created by Adobe. Or, maybe the pdf with scanned content has been made with...

Hi,

Thanks for the ticket.

Not sure if it's directly related but this topic didn't get a ticket.

What I would like to bring here again is that Copy and Apply Copied Style doesn't work when copying embedded fonts.

Just an additional note in case.

Hi, Thank you for the added screenshots. "visual order" and content grouping is a very difficult process. We are working on changes, but these will be gradual improvements, not an overnight "suddenly everything works" type of change. Hopefully that issue will get some priority ca...

Hi Daniel, Sentence case should be working as Loki said, to my knowledge. This seems like a bug, though perhaps one which was overlooked for quite some time. I think so.

Hi, It would be super helpful if a "search and mark" selection was added to the context menu. The built in Search and Redact requires multiple mouse clicks to redact each name, and when you have hundreds of names, that process becomes mind-numbing. As PDFXCE interface is very customizable,...

Hi Sportive,

For viewing purpose, you can also simply use the built-in preview feature in windows File Explorer.

Hi Daniel, Not in bulk, but you can right click on any session that is saved internally, and "export" that session to quickly create such a file one at a time for any that are stored this way. Well, it's not really convenient with more than 10 sessions saved for e.g. Hence my suggestion to...

Hi Stefan, This seems to already be the case when changing the font for a specific text: However I am not too sure how computationally intensive this will be for e.g. annotations - so maybe that's why it is not currently available.

Hi Stefan, if the content you are cropping is say image based - and was compressed in some optimal way for the content at hand - when you crop that original image - the new image (as the cropped portion of the original image will have to be created as a new one) will have to be recompressed - and th...

Hello, Antoniojacket This is something that we are working on. Allowing most other reading actions while performing OCR in the same application will significantly reduce the speed of the OCR process, leading to extended delays in an already very lengthy process. For now, this limitation will remain...

I totally agree with this as I commented something somehow similar in this topic using Microsoft Snipping tool

There is also this other one related to translation.

I would assume that AI is mature enough now for such task depending on the model used.

It is different indeed - as if you are dragging with the mouse - we will try to make sure that the whole shape is then placed inside the Crop box, but if you need to "hide" a part of such a shape - you can achieve it with the arrow keys. What you said makes sense if it's a "part"...

Hi Stefan, Hello Loki@99, The PDF pages are each a "canvas" with a coordinate system and several "boxes" in that coordinate system. So you can have a "Crop" box - which means that you only see items that do fall in that box, but this does not prevent you from having obj...

Hi MishaH, Hi, Loki@99 Are you using only a single click on a bookmark from the advanced search panel?

Loki@99

Hi, Very useful suggestion by MedBooster and excellent 393 addition; thanks, guys. Well, I also noticed that it was adressed in build 393 version history but it still lacks the auto-scroll if the bookmark is a "Go to page" action though. Hopefully that feature can be implemented so that ad...

Hi MishaH, Your “problem” is with the location of the content on the page. With the current settings, it will be centered.

Hi, Thanks for implementing the feature in 10.5 build 393 . While it's working correctly, there seems to be a room of improvement.

It's not the same product.

This forum is for PDF-XChange Editor by Tracker Support which is not related to NG PDF lab.

Hi,

I reported a similar issue some time ago.

It's related to embedded fonts.

This topic is also related and will probably fix that issue when the feature see an implementation.

Hi,

I can confirm the issue on PDFXCE but the issue is also reproducible with the TTSApplication tester from NaturalVoiceSAPIAdapter so it's an issue with the adapter and not PDFXCE.

Reported to NaturalVoiceSAPIAdapter Github repository and dev said that it's not supported now.
