Hello,
I found a neat program that allows me to view one pdf after another, but which is limited in just being able move files and rename them.
Before I decided to lay down the money, I had your free viewer and downloaded the pro version. Obviously yours does a great deal more in the file, but I don't seem to be able to go from one to another. That feature is very helpful in that it avoids having to open and close each pdf, and I have tons.
Is this feature available, it doesn't seem that it is?

Re: Feature available? Can I go from one PDF to another
PDF-XChange has several features that will help when viewing many documents.
1) You can resize the file open dialogue to suit your needs and show a large preview of each selected file with its details, as in this screenshot. This is probably the best option for you.
2) You can open many documents at once and switch quickly between them using the thumbnail preview window or the navigation tabs using the built-in Multiple Document Interface
3) There is also a Windows Explorer Shell extension, which shows small thumbnails of PDF documents in Windows Explorer in Thumbnail mode.

Re: Feature available? Can I go from one PDF to another
Well I have several hundred pdf files and I was looking for a program that would allow me to preview each one, much like Windows XP Picture viewer does. I didn't want to open each one, but rather click on a tab and the next pdf in the folder would be shown.
The thumbnail preview is a start, but to be honest, too small to do me much practical good.
The program I found that does the basics of what I was looking for is called Universal Viewer. However, he doesn't have the volumes of features your application does. Here is the link and then you could see specifically what I am referring to.

Build 41 or 42 will contains Organizer inside. Now we are working on it. I'm not sure it will be too powerfull on the first release, but hope will meet most of users' requests.

Well, you don't have to if you use my solution number 1. You can preview each one from the Open File dialogue without opening it and you can make the preview bigger by resizing the dialogue box.themus wrote:I didn't want to open each one, but rather click on a tab and the next pdf in the folder would be shown.
Select a file from the filename list on the left to preview it on the right. Scroll up and down with the cursor keys to view one after another.

Re: Feature available? Can I go from one PDF to another
The preview option you are mentioning is ok, but if you compared it to the preview mode of the one I mentioned earlier, you will see the difference. It is much bigger and you do have a few options like moving the pdf you are looking at; renaming it; or deleting it.
Sounds like your organizer features you are working on will be the most viable solution. I appreciate all the feedback.
