Re: change page orientation leads to crash

i was able to complete the operation on that document using the portable free version of pdfxchange-viewer 2.5 build 322.9, so there must be something buggy in pdfxchange-editor 7.328.1.

Re: bug in build 310 under ubuntu/wine regarding text box fo

just to confirm, switching from x64 to x86 wine/msxml6 works even with the latest wine 1.7.29 under ubuntu 14.10. i only had to manually configure wine to use the native msxml6.dll instead of the builtin.

Re: bug in build 310 under ubuntu/wine regarding text box fo

that happens no matter what pdf i am editing. another quick check i did is adding a line to an existing one line text box containing text in bold. as soon as i type CR and leave the text box it looses the bold text attribute.
