CAPTOR 3.5.7 (iOS) and 1.2.5 (Android): Open PDF Files in CAPTOR

New versions of CAPTOR on iOS and Android are rolling out over the next two weeks with some significant updates to process threading, file management, and two great new features.

Beginning with iOS v3.5.7 and Android v1.2.5 you will be able to use CAPTOR to open and annotate PDF files. Previous to this release, CAPTOR supported importing media files (photos and videos).

For example, if you receive a PDF as an email attachment you will now have an option to open it in CAPTOR, which saves the file in the CAPTOR “Imported” folder. Once the file is in CAPTOR, you can re-arrange or delete pages, add new pages via the scanning feature, and apply annotations (arrows, text labels, etc). When the PDF is then shared again (attached to a new email, uploaded to a secure file storage, etc) it will be assembled based on the same policies that apply to scanned documents (watermarking, PDF version, etc).

Future releases will include new annotation options specific to PDF files, including e-signature.

Also included in this release are new prompts for the user to complete backup settings. For example, if the app configuration includes all backup settings except the password, the user will be prompted to enter the password and test the backup settings.

As always we appreciate your feedback. If you experience any issues or have suggestions on how we can improve the CAPTOR apps please drop us a note.
