FAQ
What should I do if the Import and Export Comments command is dimmed?
- Make sure the PDF file is open and Edit Content mode is enabled.
- Click Text Edit to confirm that you are in text editing mode.
- Select the target text again and check whether Import/Export becomes available.
- If the command is still unavailable, confirm that the text in the current file can be edited directly.
How do I remove an Import and Export Comments effect that has already been applied?
- In text editing mode, select the text that already has the effect.
- Click Import/Export on the toolbar or the floating toolbar.
- Confirm that the text returns to the state after the effect is removed.
Why can’t I use this feature directly in a scanned PDF?
