A few comments

Post by Willy Van Nuffel »

John,
The new edition of PDF-XChange Editor is really spectacular and outstanding.
It offers a lot of functionality and it is easy to use.
May I take the opportunity to write a few remarks...
- setup progress bar a first does not seem to mark that installation has already started and at some passes does not reach the end when the process has come to the end
- the Help > About, says that the Editor is 100% free... I do not think it is...
- Wouldn't it be good to write down that PDF-XChange Editor is the 'producer' of the new PDF in the 'Document properties'. At this moment that information stays empty...
- Right click on a 'bookmark' in the bookmarks list and clicking 'Set destination' does nothing, no reaction.
- When emptying some of the cases (fill-in boxes) in the Header/Footer dialogbox, the corresponding text on the pages is not removed
- Can it be add to the OCR progress bar which page(s) are being treated ?
- In the commenting tools, some options are (still) missing, like Typewriter, Stamps, Highlight, Crossout, Underline...

To all of you: congratulations and a lot of success with PDF-XChange Editor.

Hello,

Congratulations on the release! Some comments:

1. I'd like to confirm, as Willy has pointed out, that some annotation tools are missing (notably, the highlight).
2. I can't find the styles for annotation tools, which are one the main reasons for me to use PDF-Xchange and certainly one of its greatest features.
3. I can't drag and drop files.
4. I can't create bookmarks by selecting a heading and right-clicking on it. In fact, I can't create bookmarks at all.
5. So far, I can't customize the icons on the toolbars, but I need to spend more time on it.

Edit:

6. I can't find the Update button.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Thanks for the comments which will be passed for our project team to analyze and we will comment as necessary later.

However to confirm one major point - all text annotations are missing (this includes the typewriter and text box tools) and will be in the next release mentioned in my earlier post.

Drag and drop is also in progress and will be in the next update if all goes well.

Thanks for your patience.

Thank you, John, for your quick answer. I can't wait to test the programme once it's fully completed and available.

Have a nice weekend!
