The Support Tools utility provides you with a quick way to gather support-related information that can be useful in requesting assistance from the Nitro PDF Support Team. You can also use Support Tools to reinstall the Nitro PDF Creator printer or update the Microsoft Office add-ins.

Nitro Pro enables you to quickly summarize all of the comments contained in your PDF documents. Summarizing comments allows you to view all of the comments alongside the contents of the document. When comments are summarized, each comment is displayed as a callout alongside the original PDF page, allowing you to quickly view the contents of each comment side-by-side with the original document. Each callout is also assigned an ID, and an accompanying summary table lists each comment by ID, along with the contents and other details of the comment. This makes it very convenient to view all of the comments at once, as well as flip back and forth between pages of the document to view comments individually.

Creating a Submit button within a PDF form allows users to automatically submit their entered data to a specified URL or email address. You can easily create a Submit button on your forms to help users in submitting form data. If you choose to submit data to a URL, you should be aware that you will need to set up server-side programming in order to collect and route the form data. If you choose to submit data to an email address, the email body will contain the form data, and you have several options for specifying which data is included or excluded.

The advantage of using PDF forms is the ability to receive, fill-out, and submit the form without having to deal with physical papers, and without having to send the document by post. With QuickSign you can also validate a form by adding a digital copy of your very own signature.

The page splitting functionality gives you advanced tools to copy pages from existing PDFs and re-use them to assemble new files. The functionality includes by pages, bookmarks, page range parameters, or file size.

You can elect to split a PDF document into a set of individual PDF files, each containing a specific number of pages. For example, if the original file contains 30 pages, and you choose to split it into files containing 5 pages each, 6 PDF files will be created.

This method of splitting allows you to split a single PDF into multiple files based on the bookmark hierarchy and bookmark levels. This can be particularly useful when bookmarks are based on the sections and structure of your PDFs.

The page range method gives you additional page splitting flexibility, including individual pages into new file(s), splitting a page ranges into new file(s), combine pages and pages ranges, separating page ranges into separate output files, and more.

The Comments pane allows you to keep track of comments that have been added to PDF documents. The pane displays a list containing each comment, along with its type, reviewer name, time stamp, any text feedback, as well as any replies.

There may be cases when you wish to show or hide certain fields in your PDF form; for example, if the user clicks a button, a new group of fields is displayed. You have several options to select from when showing or hiding fields: you can elect to show or hide an individual field by setting the field’s General properties, or you can write your own custom JavaScript to show and hide fields based on user action (for example, if a user hovers over a button or another). As another option, you can create a button that will show or hide specific fields when pressed.

When working with form fields, users can move from field to field using the tab key on their keyboard. By default, the field tab order will be set by the order in which the fields where created. Depending on the order you added the fields, you may find cases where you need to edit the tab order to make it easier for users to navigate.

Nitro Pro makes an easy task out of sending a PDF file via email, by creating a new message in your default email client and automatically attaching the currently open PDF file.

Nitro Pro allows you to select and copy text and images in your PDF document, and also use it in other applications. With Nitro Pro, you can copy text with or without formatting. Copy text with formatting is useful when you need to retain formatting characteristics.

Security profiles store your security settings, are re-useable, and help you work more quickly. Instead of re-entering passwords or re-adding recipient names every time you use document security, open the PDF file in Nitro Pro and select the security profile from a list. If you use certificate-based security and regularly send files to the same people, security profiles save you a lot of time.

With Nitro Pro, you can apply two different types of security to control who can access your files and what actions they can perform once they receive them: password-based security, and certificate-based security.
