How can I open a document in a new window instead of a tab ?

Post by island ceramic grinding, inc »

I have two monitors and sometimes I would like a viewer in each so that I can compare two documents at the same time.
I have not been able to find a way to open a document in a second viewer window as opposed to a tab in the existing viewer window.
Is there a way?
Thank you.

Edit, Preferences, General, and check "Allow multiple instances."

Restart PDF-XChange and open two or more PDF files from Windows Explorer. If you do then want to open a second tab in one window, drag and drop the second PDF file to the target window.

Thanks Bhikkhu :)
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.
