Why do the various Plugins not support Exporting and Importing their settings along with the rest of the Editor setting so users can have a consistent set of settings if needed?
Also I haven't tested the rest yet but the Sharepoint settings can be saved to the Registry to the HKCU through the PDFEditor.Inst.SaveUserSettings programming call. But the PDFEditor.Inst.LoadUserSettings will only work if you do it before loading the plugin, not after. So you can't load settings from the registry either after the plugin is loaded.

Hi RMan,
this question is within the context of the Editor SDK? If so I will move the topic to the appropriate forum so as to ensure a developer see it.

Re: Plugins Do Not Support Export/Import Settings
It's really with both and I'm sure both related to the
In terms of the end user products there is no option to save the settings for any plug in besides the spell checker.
With the SDK you can load the settings prior to loading the plug in will use those settings.
PDFEditor.Inst.LoadUserSettings
PDFEditor.Inst.StartLoadingPlugins
PDFEditor.Inst.AddPluginFromFile
PDFEditor.Inst.FinishLoadingPlugins
But if you try to load the settings after then it doesn't apply the settings to the plug in.
PDFEditor.Inst.StartLoadingPlugins
PDFEditor.Inst.AddPluginFromFile
PDFEditor.Inst.FinishLoadingPlugins
PDFEditor.Inst.LoadUserSettings --> Doesn't work for the plug in
Also in the end user version it doesn't appear to reset the plug in settings to the default when you do a Reset Settings.
