PDF: How to view other pages than the first?

Post by wfa »

When loading a PDF file, how can I view other pages than the first one? There is no next page button.

In which program?

In XnConvert it is possible to step through the pages of a multi-page file using the arrow keys in the preview window, in XnView Classic and XnView MP use the small arrows on the toolbar...

In XnConvert (this is XnConvert forum right).
The keyboard arrow keys doesn't do anything for the PDF. The small arrow buttons flip through PDF files not the same PDF file pages. Not even page up or down work. I have XnConvert version 1.76

On the XnConvert Actions tab Preview display there does seem to be no way to step through the pages of a multi-page file to check the effect of an action... :(

I found the icons in the toolbar work

keyboard shortcuts are SHIFT+PgUp and SHIFT+PgDn
Amazing functionality to view pdf pages in an image viewer :)

@jancijanci

Those icons are on the toolbar in the XnView MP viewer, but there are currently no equivalent buttons in the Batch convert or XnConvert 'Actions' tab preview display...

Hopefully they will be added eventually, as they could be very useful when a multipage file is loaded for conversion.
