Organise PDF pages

The thumbnail strip can now add, delete and reorder pages.

  • Delete — the × on a thumbnail removes the page from the document, not just from the strip.
  • Reorder — drag thumbnails to reorder the document itself.
  • Add — drop a PDF or image onto the strip, or use the Add Pages tile. A PDF adds all its pages; an image becomes one page.

Every page change is undoable with ⌘Z, and nothing touches the file on disk until you save.

Saving a PDF keeps its structure

Saving used to discard the table of contents, hyperlinks and document metadata. A document you only reorganised is now saved byte-for-byte intact; with annotations, the outline, links and metadata are carried across instead of dropped.

Hide the menu bar icon

Settings › General can take SimplShot's icon out of the menu bar for keyboard-driven workflows — open the app from Spotlight to bring the menu back. Check for Updates now also sits in Settings › About. Suggested by Matt Ormianek.

Fixes

  • Better template previews — Settings › Template previews closer to what it exports: Auto keeps padding even, ratio presets show the right canvas shape, and watermarks appear nearer their exported size.
  • Adding an HDR photo to a PDF produced a blank page. iPhone HDR photos decode as 10-bit, which PDFKit accepts but cannot embed. Images are now converted to 8-bit colour first.
