click the layer’s name and drag it to the desired location. You can undo or redo the
operation. (Note: You cannot reorder locked layers or layers in nested layer groups.)
Layer Properties
By editing layer properties in the Layer Properties dialog box, you can control the
visibility of layers and set whether to print or export layers. For example, you can hide
a layer whenever the document is displayed on screen, while ensuring that the layer
always prints. Only Foxit PDF Editor Pro users are enabled to edit the layer properties.
1. To open the Layer Properties dialog box, select the layer, click the Options menu
and choose Layer Properties.... Or just right-click the layer and choose
Properties... to open the Layer Properties dialog box.
2. Edit the layer name or any of the following:
Intent – selects View and the visibility and properties of the layer can be edited
any time. Or, selects Reference to keep the current visibility and setting at all
times until you switch to View.
Default State – Defines the initial visibility state when Visibility in Initial State
is set to Visible When On.
Visibility – Defines the visibility of the layer when the document is opened or
when the initial visibility is reset. If you choose Visible When On, the layer is
visible only when Default State is On.
Print – Defines whether the layer will be printed when you print the PDF. If you
choose Print When Visible, the layer will print only when the layer is visible.
Export – Defines whether the layer will appear in the resulting document when
the PDF is exported to an application or file format that supports layers. If you
choose Export When Visible, the layer will appear in the resulting document
only when the layer is visible.
The previous settings in Initial State like the states of Print, View, and Export,
are shown in the box at the bottom of the Layer Properties dialog box.
