Hi,

I do not know if it will help, but I think that some of the concerned pages have been rotated.

In the Organize-ribbon, there is an option "Normalize Pages". This option "Removes all redundant page/content rotations and media-box offsets, leaving the entire page's appearance identical to the original."

Can you try to apply this to the concerned document(s) and then try again ?

Kind regards and keep us posted.

Hello Willy Van Nuffel,

Thanks for the suggestion! Indeed most likely some of the pages have been rotated at a point in the past, and Normalizing them should resolve the issue with copying comments!

Kind regards,
Stefan

Normalizing the pages worked.
I did have to search for the function because i couldn't find it on my taskbar in the same spot has you.

Hello GabrielB,

I did have to search for the function because i couldn't find it on my taskbar in the same spot has you.

The "Normalize Page Orientation and Offset" command has existed for a long time, but has only been placed by default in the Pages toolbar on the Organize tab since build 386.

• PDF-XChange Editor Version History - Build 10.3.0.386
  NEW Added the 'Normalize Pages' feature. (T# 5266)
  Removes all redundant page/content rotations and media-box offsets, leaving the entire page's appearance identical to the original.

Therefore, if you are using build 385 or earlier, you will need to search for the command from Quick Launch or use the Customize Toolbars feature to place the command.

Best regards,
