9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy (below) is failing here. Input file bookmarks are appearing in the output. Take note any other users doing security-conscious publishing.
Anyone managed to get it to work?
Else know a workaround? I'd use an action to strip bookmarks.... except there seems not to be one.
Thanks.

Re: 9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
I found one - under Sanitize, below.I'd use an action to strip bookmarks.... except there seems not to be one.
EDIT: Feedback to devs: It took a while, because my Help search found nothing... because that Sanitize option https://i.imgur.com/uVvqfxp.png is missing from Help https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt9/ at the "Sanitize Document" action. Also missing there is any mention of bookmarks.
But what would be really good would be the program offer a search of the UI. I'm sure I'd find lots I'd like!

you have bookmarks in the result file because "Add root bookmark.. " option is activated.
"Bookmark: Do not copy" option means that bookmark from source files will not be copied.

Re: 9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
Thanks for the thought, but I have bookmarks in the result file because a) "Add root bookmark.."is giving me the root bookmarks I need (when not wrecked by Sanitize) and b) independently the bookmarks within the input file are being copied despite "Bookmark: Do not copy".
E.g. settings:
Input files:
Output file:
which (if "Bookmark: Do not copy" was working) would be:
Support, how can I get "Bookmark: Do not copy" to work, or otherwise remove input bookmarks without wrecking the root bookmarks I need? Thanks.
PS Workaround for ToC (only): Limit the level. https://i.imgur.com/LANeKno.png .

Any news on this of two days ago, Support?Support, how can I get "Bookmark: Do not copy" to work, or otherwise remove input bookmarks without wrecking the root bookmarks I need? Thanks.
Any workaround better than manually deleting the input bookmarks would be appreciated. Thanks.

Re: 9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
Hello, chrisjj,
Obviously there is a bug in 'Split/Merge Documents' action with 'Actions with objects (Bookmarks)' option. There is no workaround using only 'Split/Merge Documents' action for now. The bug already fixed and fix will be available in the nearest build.
But there is workaround using 'Optimize Document' action. If I caught what you want, you can use such actions subsequence:
'Choose Input Files' -> 'Optimize Document' -> 'Split/Merge Documents -> 'Save Documents'
For 'Optimize document' make the following adjustments in Options: open 'All Options' of 'Optimize Document' action, uncheck all checks in list on the left side of dialog except 'Discard objects' check, select it, enable 'Discard bookmarks' check in 'Discard Objects Settings' as shown on screenshot below.
For 'Split/Merge Documents' action check option 'Add root bookmark with filename'.
Also you can use attached tool as reference to make your own tool:
Best regards

Hi, chrisjj
Yes, the next build. We still do not have a release date for this build, but as Vladimir has confirmed, this issue will be resolved with that update. Keep an eye out for build 357.0 when it is ready.

Re: 9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
Thanks D.
PS Could you pass on my suggestion that the Sanitize Document Help article EDIT: https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt9/index.html?sanitize-document2_t.html be improved to cover the remove bookmarks option, and ideally to include the UI labels for all the options. That would allow a Help search for such a function to find the article. Thanks.

The update has simply added a bitmap so fails on the search.
And https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt ... nt2_t.html remains.

Re: 9.1.365.0 Split/Merge Documents Bookmarks Do Not Copy fail
Hi Chris,
The manual was updated to match the style and layout of all product manuals, which in general means that text within images is not documented unless it relates to customizable options (beyond something as simple as check boxes, as in this example). I understand what you mean about this resulting in the search terms you are using not returning the desired section of the manual, but this is extremely unlikely to be an issue for other users (to the best of my knowledge we have never had a single report of this before), and therefore this is not going to change.
The page you mentioned:
https://help.pdf-xchange.com/pdfxt ... nt2_t.html
still remains because in the case of the PDF-Tools manual it is necessary to have a page for each tool and for each constituent action of each tool. Therefore there is a page for the Sanitize Documents tool and a different page for the Sanitize Documents action.
Kind regards,

Lots of room for improvemnt there, then.

I'd have thought it obviously an user who searches the help for one of these options.
Thanks.
