Export Settings and Import Settings not working properly

Post by zhugecaomao »

Export Settings and Import Settings are not working properly.

Some settings appear to be lost during the process. For example, the Rectangle Tool, Oval Tool, and Highlight Text settings do not retain their configurations after exporting and re-importing the settings.

(Please refer to the attached screenshot.)

Additionally, may I check if it is possible to allow customization of the Context Menu (right-click menu)? We need the ability to adjust the sequence of menu items, add frequently used items, and remove unused ones.

Hello zhugecaomao,

The default styles are designed to keep customizations only for the current session.
To preserve your custom settings, you need to clone the default styles first.
Thus you will create your own styles, which will then be exported together with the custom settings.

That can only be done using our PDF Tools:
