Full View
The PDF Converter Assistant has a title bar, a menu bar, a toolbar, a left and a right panel in Full View. This view is recommended if you want full control over conversion and want to process several files at the same time.
The left panel
The left panel varies, depending on the user actions. After starting PDF Converter Assistant it displays an empty sheet with an eye. The panel serves for displaying the Preview panel, the four processing mode panels (Standard Document, Legal, Spreadsheet and Form) and the Output Options panel. Click a button or use the View menu to change the contents of this left panel.
The right panel
The right panel is the Information panel. When the Converter Assistant is started, this panel is empty. After opening one or more source files it contains a file list with filenames of the source files to be converted, along with the page range, if any. This Information panel provides an overview of the status of files after opening, and also after conversion.
Tip
You can drag-and-drop files onto the Preview panel or the file list. They will be inserted or appended to the list according to the drop position.
Note
When Quick View is active, you can restore Full View by selecting View > Quick View again .
