The new release WPViewPDF 2.28 optimizes page selection. There are new commands to check if a page was selected and also to save/restore a selection. Most important the SHIFT key can be used to select a range of pages.
This new release implements a new algorithm to render rotated pages. This avoids problems with such PDFs which were seen in former builds.
The command “Roate” now takes the parameter “selected” to rotate the selected pages only.
Also optimized was the compatibility to PDF files which use advanced index structures. This should fix the problem “root not found”.
