how do I filter out only my mark-ups to transfer to another PDF as when I window in the whole document alot of other stuff is highlighted?….
I just want this stuff….
Assuming page numbers are the same in both PDFs, try
or
2. Markups List —> Filter by Author —> select MUs —> Copy —> Paste
It would be good to see your Markup List and what customisations you have made. The point is to consider the Markup List as a database and look at how you can manipulate the data. My apologies if you are not new to this concept 🙂. Jes's answer is perfect in answering your specific question, but what if there are other markups? Or only select a few of your Makups. One simple idea would be to create Custom Statuses with a "Transfer" and potentially a "No Transfer" option and then create a filter to show only the "Transfer" status markups. Then save this Filter in your Profile for future use.
In Jes's options above, I tested No. 1 and it will transfer ALL Markups - you could use the Filter for "No Transfer" to isolate all the Markups that you dont want and delete them. Jes' No. 2 option works. Oh have a look at Slip Sheet and or using Sets to update Markups automagicly from one drawing to another. 👍️
Good details to consider there @Shanoc Halliday . It reminds me of something else to potentially help with this operation… Sometimes it is necessary to SAVE AS the PDF in order to isolate markups that need to be transferred. If you filter markups then delete unwanted markups in a SAVED AS file, you can isolate the markups needed to work with rather than fighting with the markups list functionality limiting its own usefulness with the "clutter" of markups from other Authors.
