Ok, thank you for reply.

I like Xchange Viewer much more than Adobe Acrobat. But this worse rendering is really annoying.
So please find a solution in next release.

Hello Matt, A sample file (and a link to the site you tested) would be most helpful, but I presume that the web content is being rasterized - and that's why it appears blurry when Viewer inside the PDF. I would be able to tell more when I see your sample, but in the mean time may I also recommend y...

When I look on almost all web pages with Firefox or InternetExplorer (in Win7) then the text there appears sharp. Font Size is e.g. 0.75em or 12px Then I print these web pages with one of several pdf printer tools. Afterwards I have a look with Pdf XChanger-Viewer (pro). But unfortunately the font/t...

This can be accomplished by sending the PDF to the PDF-XChange Printer, in the Driver Graphics settings you can specify compression options of your PDFs images. Ok, thank you. Just to clarify what you mean: I have to print an already printed pdf doc a second time. Is that correct? There is really n...

Assume I have a pdf which contains colored/grey/black-white pictures.

How can I compress these embedded pictures with Pro version?

Sometimes I need to "zoom in" resp "zoom out" a loaded pdf document. When I click currently on the "loupe +" or "loupe -" icon in the toolbar then XChange Viewer is only put into zoom mode but the doc is not zoomed immediately. That means I have to click in zo...

When I want toe extract some pages intoi an new pdf doc (in PRO version) then I can choose the destination folder. However always having to manually select/adjust this folder is user unfriedly. I need a new option: "Into same folder as source" + timestamp postfix. So if I want to extract e...

I am afraid that this will never be possible, as we are calculating the height of the highlight based on the font info, and the font boundaries as described there. While there might be bigger or smaller line spacing - this is not something included in the font info itself - and the Viewer can not k...

I appreciate the "highlight text" tool. However I would like to have it a bit more higher. How can I append 1 more pixel (line) at the top and 1 more pixel (line) at the bottom of the stripe? This way the marked text is more readable. Otherwise horizontal font letter lines e.g. like the lo...

I want to get rid of as many toolbars (lines) as possible (at best only one). Can I customize another (non-Pages navigation toolbar) so that it contains the pages indicator?

When I export the current settings: Does that include the current Toolbars configuration?

I want either to restore it later to the same or to another installation on another computer.

Ok thank you.

What is the difference between

"Crop box"
"Bleed box"
"Trim box"
"Art box"

mattad

OK, no problem. Have a look at the attached pdf.
In Pdf Xchange Viewer the highlight text appears black font on red background (=ok).
In Foxit Reader (v5.0) the highlighted text appears red font on red background (=bad).

Assume I got a pdf doc where the text is placed in the center of the page.
On top, bottom, left and right there is a big, big white margin.

How can I reduce this margin (e.g. -2 cm) and save the resoluting pdf a s new pdf doc?

Hello Matt, It's not currently possible, but as a faster solution you could easily set up a custom shortcut key so that you can easily switch to the text select tool. Hmm, that pity. Setting up a shortcut is not that comfortable. Could you include an option in the next release? Programmatically inc...

I am using very often the "Select tool".
To enable this I have currently always manually to click the menu

Is there a way to tell Xchange pdf viewer to AUTOMATICALLY eneable this tool at startup/loading of a pdf?

When I go to page:

https://www.pdf-xchange.com/product/downloads

I find only one (presumably) 32bit portable version of XChange Viewer.

Where can I download the portable 64bit version?

If it does not exist: When will it be released?

Oftentimes I open a pdf doc with XChange Viewer to see whats in it. Then I want to move/drag&drop this file inside WinExplorer to another folder BUT KEEP the pdf doc open. This is currently not possible. XChange Viewer has always a "lock" on this file. I doubt that this is necessary. H...

Hi, It is possible - we can create such appearance for highlight annotation. but then if you try to modify such an annotation using another PDF tool, they will create their own appearance which will be rounded... Yes please, create such an appearance. I will most probably never modify such an annot...

How to find used font occurencies and replace fonts?

mattad

Ok, thank you.

But the best solution would be to have NO bows - and highlighted text background just as a rectangle stripe.

Is this really, really not possible ?

Could you ask the developers if they could make it feasible this way?

Thank you
Matt

mattad

No problem. see attachment

mattad

Thank you. However I experienced a strange behaviour when I use the highlight tool. When I use it in some pdf docs then the ends are bowed outwards (this is somehow acceptable) but in other pdf docs they are bowed inwards (this looks odd). Why is there a different behaviour on different pdfs? Could ...

mattad

Ok, thank you.

that means: Even if I print a web page/word doc with lets say 150 dpi the text in the resulting pdf can be printed later with 600 dpi on a physical laser printer.

Is this correct?

When I print a pdf from an application (browser/Word processor) then I can select the
dpi value for printing (mostly 300 or 600 dpi).

Ok, now lets say I got an already printed pdf doc.
How can I detect with how much dpi this pdf doc was originally printed?

Is there a way to delete a (one or more) picture from a doc?
I want e.g. to delete an advertising picture/banner from a printed pdf article.

Is this somehow possible?

Similarly is it possible to delete some text from a pdf doc?

Hi mattad when you select any tool in PDF-XChange Viewer, the "Properties Toolbar" appears with context sensitive options. Here you can change the properties of the currently selected Tool like the colour or opacity. http://files.tracker-software.com/forumImages/HighlightPropertiesToolbar...

When I open a pdf doc with XViewer then almost always on the left side a bookmark pane is automatically opened as well.

How can I avoid/prevent this auto-opening in the future?

Rhe bookmarks should only be shoiwn when I explicitely open them.
