The current options for opening a PDF from Bookends are these: Default, Preview, Skim, Adobe Reader, PFM Pen. My default is Preview, and I am fine with that. But I would like to have a quick option to open a PDF in Acrobat Pro to perform OCR. At the same time, I don't have Skim or PFM Pen. Is there a way I can customize this menu (the drop down menu at the top of the attachment window): removing options I don't want, adding those I do?

Re: Opening PDFs
No, it's not modifiable for a number of reasons. If you're NOT using the PDF annotation view you can drag and drop the pdf onto Acrobat Pro in the dock. I could probably add Acrobat Pro to the options (but can't test it, because I don't have that app).

Oh, dragging the icon is a pretty quick solution. I didn't think of that! All I have to do is open Acrobat first. In fact, it seems to work even though I am using the PDF annotation view!

Dragging the icon on the application switcher (first drag the icon, then invoke cmd + tab) should also work.martinjp wrote:Oh, dragging the icon is a pretty quick solution. I didn't think of that!

D'oh, of course. I forgot I included a draggable PDF proxy icon in the PDF annotation view. :-)martinjp wrote:Oh, dragging the icon is a pretty quick solution. I didn't think of that! All I have to do is open Acrobat first. In fact, it seems to work even though I am using the PDF annotation view!
