PDF Printing
In addition to the usual print choices you can choose to print the PDF
with or without comments. You can also print form fields only, allowing
you to print an empty form, fill it electronically, and then print your
responses onto the empty form. The Imposition tools lets you to prepare
PDF pages for physical printing.
Table of Contents
Insert a Table of Contents in your document, based on bookmarks. Open
the bookmark panel, set bookmarks and their ranking, then choose
Table of Contents from the bookmark panel's shortcut menu. The TOC
is useful when the PDF is physically printed and bookmarks are no
longer available.
PDF Document comparison
This lets you compare two PDF files with similar content - typically an
earlier and later version of one document. Access this from the
Document menu, then choose to see a visual or a textual comparison,
with a side-by-side or combined presentation. The latter shows only one
document and marks object or text changes: new text is underlined
while deleted text appears in a marker tooltip.
PDF to Word Document comparison
PDF Professional is able to compare a PDF file with a particular version
of a Word file; typically this will be the file the PDF was made from. It
can show which changes were made since the PDF was created. The
comparison is made within Word, the result can be displayed in a
temporary file that you can save if required.
PDF splitting
You can split large PDF files into a set of smaller ones so they are easier to
distribute. Access this from the Document menu and choose splitting
criteria: by file size, blank pages, number of pages, bookmarks, document
structure, etc. You can also extract pages by criteria that you specify.
