FAQs

Q1. Will the change in viewer interface impact any of my existing markups, markup stamps, signatures, bookmarks, etc. on different files currently accessible to me? Can I still access all the toolbar options including my saved signatures or stamps from the markup toolbar options?

A1. All your saved markups, markup stamps, signatures, bookmarks, etc. will remain as it is and you can continue accessing them in the new viewer interface. Similarly, you can also continue using your saved signatures or stamps from the markup toolbar options as per the navigation in the new interface.
