Inserting Files
I am working on a large submittal package that I need to swap out groups of pages with updates. No matter how I try, it is frustratingly slow as in up to 10 minutes. My current process is to delete the old files and drag the new ones over. Does anyone have suggestions?

This was a suggestion from an end user email I received. Current State: Flipping to various pages in a PDF by manually clicking into the page number area of the Navigation Bar and typing in the page number. Suggestion: a keyboard shortcut to jump into the page number area to type in the destination page number. This would…

Highlight Text by Outline
The Select Text tool allows you to use Ctrl+Click to drag a rectangle for selecting text. Is it possible to achieve this with the Highlighter tool? Or can we apply a highlight to the selected text? I also note we can right click and apply highlight, however this will only apply the default and not the custom tool:

Save Batch Signing, Dating, and Stamp Locations
To comply with new laws we need the ability to sign and stamp drawings. Not all of the engineers are as tech savy when it comes to items like placing and resizing design elements so the stamps look right and it will be very time-consuming to rearrange and manually place all of these elements every time. The ability at…

Fix Automark bug that reads from bottom up
I've noticed this issue for a while, but was hoping it would get fixed at some point… I'm not sure why, but some times when I use Automark the program reads the bottom line first, then moves up instead of starting from the top and reading down. The workaround is to assign separate regions per line in the title block, but…

Is there a way to Batch Clear Signatures?
I have printed a set of plans that has over a hundred sheets and then I batched signed them. After signing them I realized one of the sheets did not print correctly so instead of reprinting the entire set again, or clearing the signatures one by one, I want to clear all my signatures with one quick command so I can swap…

Use custom Keyboard Shortcuts
Create a few custom keyboard shortcuts for your most used tools or commands. Not too many, otherwise its hard to remember all of them. I had problems with overlapping Markups. Therefore I use F1 to hide all markups with a single button, even while using different tools, without anything in the way. After completing the…

Option to disable dimming markups when filtered out
I don't see that there is an option to disable the automatic dimming of markups when filtering the Markups List. This creates challenges in workflows where supporting sketches are drawn to provide visual context for comments but are not meant to appear as actionable items in the Markups List. Currently, when filtering the…

Loupe Tool
I miss having the Loupe tool that Acrobat has, where you can magnify a small area, without having to change your zoom level or position.

Bb Session Email content
It would be nice if the Session email included the list of documents in the Session. This is helpful when you recieve the email bu tmore helpful after the session has been closed. We have clients who host their sessions and once they close the session it's no possible to check if a document was previously reviewed. Since…

Back button to previous page viewed
It would be helpful to have the option to change the function of the back button from previous view to previous page viewed. I often go to a page an pan around, zoom in a few times and then want to go back to the previous page but I have to hit back multiple times because it cycles through the scrolling and panning.
