Working with PDF files

CatDV can analyse and display PDF documents.

On Mac platforms, QuickTime supports PDF files and so CatDV can extract metadata, display a JPEG thumbnail, launch the PDF in an external application and show the contents of the PDF file in the ‘Movie’ tab (allowing step through of the PDF pages).

On Windows, CatDV can extract metadata, display a jpeg thumbnail, and launch the PDF in an external application.

Ensure that under “preferences/import” the “Enable PDF Importer” option is selected.
