When creating new PDF portfolio, even if OS time zone is not UTC, the portfolio index date and time are set based on UTC

[rakunavi]

Hello all,

When creating a new PDF portfolio in PDF-XChange Editor, I noticed that the date and time displayed on the portfolio home screen and in the Show Information dialog box are set based on UTC without taking into account the Windows time zone settings. When opening each file from the portfolio and checking the date and time from the document properties, the date and time are displayed correctly, taking into account the time zone in Windows.

In the following verification, when the time zone in Windows is set to UTC+9, a newly created PDF file is added to a new PDF portfolio, and the date and time of the file is compared with the clock in the system tray in each scene.

In other PDF applications, there is no time difference due to time zones between the date and time displayed in each scene and the clock in the system tray, so it seems that improvements are needed in PDF-XChange Editor.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Best regards,

Hello, rakunavi

Thank you for the report, I was able to reproduce this (and a related one where the creation time was offset by a completely different value than the editing time), and both issues have been reported to the Dev team for review.

Kind regards,
