The Quick Access Toolbar

Quick Access Toolbar

Available in the top-left corner of the Right PDF Reader window, the Quick Access Toolbar enables you to quickly access the tools and commands you often use, and you can place it above or below the Ribbon area.

By default, the toolbar contains the following shortcuts (from left to right):

• (A) Open. Locate a PDF file and open it.

• (B) Save. Save your current file by overwriting the previous version with your latest changes.

• (C) Email. Send the current document or just selected pages of it as an attachment via email.

• (D) Print . Print the current document.

• (E) Undo. Retrace your previous steps by undoing any changes to the PDF.

• (F) Redo.  Redo an action that you undid.

• (G) Touch/Mouse Mode. Due to the increased use of mobile devices, Right PDF provides Touch Mode to make toolbar buttons, panels, and feature icons drift apart slightly, so that users can easily select them with fingers. To switch back to Mouse Mode, click the Touch/Mouse Mode button  and select Mouse Mode from the menu.

You can also move the Quick Access Toolbar to the underside of the Ribbon section by selecting Show Below the Ribbon and then select Show Above the Ribbon to move it back.
