Copy & Paste Multiple Markups Simultaneously

Post by xz1bbj »

I often have the need to put many markups on a single page and then put those same markups on another page. I would like to be able to select all the markups by Control-clicking on them one at a time, copying with Control-C, then go to the other page and pasting with Control-V, then moving all the pasted markups at once to the desired position on that page. It seems that I can only select one markup at a time to copy & paste. Is there a method to do multiples?

Hello xz1bbj,

This is not possible with the current version of our Viewer, but it is planned and on the radar for ver3.

For now you can export all the comments to a data file, and then import them to the new document - this should do the trick as a temporary workaround.

Best,
Stefan

We are still targetting late spring - we cannot be more specific I am afraid at this time.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

The loss of this feature, switching from Acrobat to PDFXchangeViewer, hurts very much.
Today our customer identified that problem using our product using PDFXchangeViewer.

Please ensure, that copy&paste multiple items will be added to V3!

Hi Peter,

Not for now - we are no posting any dates and will only do so on release of the first Public Beta - it coming and thats the most I can say for now.
If posting files to this forum - you must archive the files to a ZIP, RAR or 7z file or they will not be uploaded - thank you.

Hi Peter,

There's a beta available here:
https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product ... nge-editor
In which multi comment selection is already possible.
And the finished product should be available very soon.

Regards,
Stefan
