The update is already there. Waiting for Apple to approve it.
I absolutely LOVE this app but am not clear about the sync. When I 'push changes', only the docs that I made changes to on my Ipad will upload to DropBox, is that right? What happens with the 'full sync'? Will DropBox docs then over-write changes I've made on my iPad??
I just synced and some of my annotations disappeared I think I'm the problem and not the app, but I'm not clear on what I'm doing wrong.
If you set up two-way sync, all your files will be synced after you annotate and press "sync" button. You might not be able to see the annotations if you are checking your files via Dropbox directly, because it won't show. You should use more sophisticated software like Adobe Reader, PDF Expert, etc.
I hope that helps.
Thanks. It was actually in PDF Expert that I couldn't find some of the annotations, so I was wondering if they were 'over written' by the 'clean files' in drop box...
No, they shouldn't be. Once you do annotations they are all saved in the file. if you press "sync" those annotated files are being uploaded to DropBox, so you have the same annotated file everywhere.
Let me know if you have any difficulties. I might be able to show you a video or to follow up with an email.
Thanks
Has anyone tried PDF expert using fill-able IRS forms? My brother is looking for a good solution to use in the road for his tax clients. Thanks.
Thanks for the update!
One thing I'm missing is the ability to see where my files are located after a search. That option used to be there, there was a little info icon I could click on which has now disappeared.
Do you have any intentions of introducing tags? Because that would do away with my 'which folder is it in' issue altogether (I currently sometimes have the same doc in a couple of different folders as they thematically belong to more than one category - tags would allow me to skip that kind of set up).
By the way, I love that you always have the 'undo' button available. There are other annotations apps in your price range that don't which I find a bit incomprehensible.
Any options in future to adjust screen brightness? Or adding night mode?
I'd buy this in a minute if it had PDF converter. I really don't mind paying extra for the converter service, I just hate to have to have a separate app to do something that seems to belong in package dealing with PDFs.If I have any documents not in PDF, I can still view them but if I want to do work on them, I just use the company's other app PDFConverter and then open in PDF Expert. Now, it would be really cool if PDF Expert had the ability to convert in-app, but guess thats just icing on the cake.
Nice app guys, thanks.
I am happy to share the news that PDF Expert 4.0 hits the AppStore with major improvements such as retina support, thumbnail view, PDF portfolio and much more.

Other questions -
Can this open/read non-pdfs, like goodreader?
Is there a new text file option?
Yes, PDF Expert reads any other types of documents and unfortunately, you cannot create a txt file.
We are working on iCloud solution to integrate the document workflow in Readdle apps.
To clarify - cannot currently create a text file or it's not in the plans to be able to create a text file?
Yes indeed! We are already working on it. Stay tuned.
anyway to improve smoothness of the PDF reader and the picture viewer?
