auto-view of first page of multiple docs

[dcyates2019]

It would be nice if the user could simultaneously see the file name and first page of all tabbed documents in a single preview screen/window, and then activate any one of them for file renaming purposes after visual verification.

Example:
Once a year, I download monthly PDF statements for the previous year from my bank. This is a manual process that is tedious. I have learned to accept the default file name [Document, Document(1), Document(2), ... etc.] for each statement, just to get all of them saved as quickly as possible and then logout from the website. I have to rename all files. I double-check by opening all docs in PDFX Editor on tabs, and then step through each one to view and confirm contents versus file name. It would be nice to do the visual verification while viewing the first pages together, and selecting any first page for renaming if any file name is incorrect.

Hello Dycates2019,

Thank you for the excellent question, I know that in the past our Viewer had such a feature, but it was removed while developing the Editor due to technical reasons. I will ask the Dev team for input on if it is possible to bring such a feature back.

Kind regards,

Hello again,

So it does seem that this is a long term feature request already, we are still looking into ways to bring it into the editor directly, however actually renaming files form the tabs will not be something that we offer. If you are looking for this kind of functionality, might I suggest instead using our preview handler in Windows explorer, that way you do not even need to open the document, and you can preview the entire document, instead of a single page, and you still have the power to rename it.

Kind regards,
