download help file

[ChrisAlba]

Hello,
I use the portable version of PDF-exchange viewer, and I get it without the helpfile (through liberkey).
I'd like to know how the pin attachment tool work ; and I've been looking for the help file bu t I can't find it on the site.
Can somebody point me in the right direction

Suggestion : add a link to the help file in the help menu


For your information
1) I have tried using the site search tool, no results
2) I have tried using the forum search tool I think I already asked that question some time ago), but I get the following message :
"The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: download file help. You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards.

Hello Christie,

Yes the forum search loves to answer this way to the more common questions

You can download the manual/help file from here:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/download/PDFVManual.zip
We are deliberately not including it with the portable version as it is almost as big as the application itself

The Attachment Pin is a tool that allows you to attach other files to a PDF document, and will serve as a visual marker (you can also add annotations to it) to point the other users that there is an attachment in this document (as for example I am keeping the Attachments window closed by default and this is a good hint for me to check it).

The attached files have a "location" property and this location would be set to the respective page when you use the pin tool. If you simply attach the file using the commands in "Attachments" (Ctrl + Shilf +A) the location would be the attachments space.

Best Regards,
Stefan

Close, but no banana ! !

That link gives me a zip, which I unzipped and obtained an old PDFVManual.PDF file

There are 6 versions of
Version: 2.050 (Updated on 14 Apr, 2010) at

I extracted the help file from the ZIP installer version - bigger and later, i.e.
Size 6.45 MB (6,763,721 bytes)

I suggest that you keep up to date the contents of
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/download/PDFVManual.zip

It would be even better if you could add the help file to the 6 existing downloads at
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads

Hi Allen,

We have moved our downloads to a "cloud" environment and the one at the link above (as remaining on our servers) might have been outdated "a bit" I will look into this getting fixed and will discuss the possibility to add a direct link to the manual in the new layout of our website with the web guys in the team.

Best,
Stefan
