formatting text in the text box

Post by olefin »

Hello,

Thanks for the great PDF XChange viewer software !
Besides other uses - it proved incomparably more convenient than all other programs in translation of PDF letters, drawings, publications etc. ... simply by placing Text boxes with another language over original text.

Still few questions about Text box, actually formatting, which are really needed to make the result match the formatting in the original PDF letter/drawing/publication:

- Can I make text "justified" ?
I can align it it right, left, centered, but not make "justified".

- Can I change line spacing?
- Can I change space before/after paragraph?

If these possibilities are not in the current PDF XChange viewer - could you, please, consider adding them to the new versions.

Once more, thanks for a very useful software.

Kind regards,
Oleg

Hello Oleg,

In the current version I am afraid that you can not do any of the formatting options you have listed, but we are already working on ver3 of the Viewer:
https://forum.pdf-xchange.com/ ... hp?t=10100
Where we are totally redesigning the text editing tools and expanding the functionality really much - so lets see what ver3 will bring and if any of the things you mentioned is still not there and is allowed by the PDF specification (e.g. justify might not be supported at all for text area tools) I will make a FR ticket for our devs and we will try to implement it.

Best,
Stefan

Stefan,

Thank you for the response!
Hope indeed you will have the new ver.3 ready soon.
And hope it will include at least some the options I'd asked about.

Good luck,

Oleg
