7.3 Selecting objects
Object selection tools
To select an object in your PDF document, you can use one of the two selection tools:
•
The Select Objects tool
•
The Select Similar Objects tool
Selecting one specific object
The Select Objects tool works almost completely the same in preview mode and in wireframe
view mode. The only difference is that, in wireframe view mode, you can only select line-art and
vector images on their outlines.
A. Selecting an object in preview mode can be done by clicking anywhere on the object.
B. Selecting an object in wireframe view mode is possible only by clicking on the
object’s outlines.
To select an object
Using the Select Objects tool , click the object or drag a dotted rectangle, also called a
marquee or bounding outline, around the object.

• If you select a line-art object or a pixel image you will see that the object’s outline is drawn
on top of it, together with the anchor points (for line art). If you enabled the center selection
handle in the PitStop Pro preferences, a point of origin on the center of the object’s bounding
box will appear as well, as in the above graphic.
