Working with PDF tools

This feature is deprecated as of version 7.1.28 because the functionality has been implemented in the new UI.

PDF tools have been available in OpenKM since OpenKM version 7.1.6.

They are enabled by default in the OpenKM KCenter user interface as of version 7.1.18.

The OpenKM classic user interface must be enabled with External tab document extension.

PDF tools are a set of features that allow the transformation of PDF files. The PDF transform features are:
