PDF Annotator 7.1: PDF Annotator is Now Faster Than Ever!
PRESS RELEASE
GRAHL software design announces the immediate availability of PDF Annotator 7.1 for Windows. PDF Annotator is the universal PDF tool to add notes & annotations to any PDF document - comments, corrections, signatures, handwritten annotations, highlighting, even photos, designs and drawings.
What's new in PDF Annotator 7.1?
In this release, we focused on performance, reliability and compatibility.
You will find no new features in this list - as we worked intensively "under the hood" of PDF Anntotator in the above mentioned areas, also laying the foundations for great new features in future versions!
Improved Scroll and Display Performance
Scrolling through complex documents has become faster than ever. We have rebuild PDF Annotator's display logic from the ground up, so scrolling is 2x faster at minimum, and up to 40x faster for documents with large amounts of handwritten annotations!
Improved Cloud Drive Compatibility
Saving documents on folders synchronized to cloud drives like Dropbox, Google Drive™ or Microsoft OneDrive™ could fail when those 3rd party tools accessed and blocked files for synchronization. We are now actively working around these issues.
Secure File Saving
When your computer runs out of battery, crashes, or has a hard drive failure, in the moment when you are saving a document, those files can become corrupted. We have introduced a new file saving strategy to reduce this risk of data loss in unexpected situations.
"Send Email" and Microsoft Outlook™
Latest Microsoft Outlook™ versions caused problems with the "File, Send Email" feature in PDF Annotator. We have found workarounds, so that "Send Email" will work flawlessly with those Outlook™ versions.
Improved Memory Management
Memory management changes in the latest Windows 10 May 2019 Update caused problems while trying to open very large PDF documents in PDF Annotator. Our setup now works with Windows 10 in a way to make more memory available to PDF Annotator for opening large documents.
Improved 3rd Party Tool Compatibility
Post-editing PDF Annotator documents with other PDF tools can make it hard for us to identify the annotations added by PDF Annotator. With additional checks we try to detect those situations, and enable a more seamless PDF workflow with different PDF tools.
Improved Printing Experience
We have reduced the amount of memory required for PDF printing, to provide a faster and more reliable printing experience.
More to Come!
We have ideas for more improvement in some of the areas above, and we have great plans to build new functionality based on the "under the hood" work we just finished. Stay tuned!
