Did you export your PDF Annotator settings? Learn how to restore your configuration.

Warning: Restoring your PDF Annotator settings from a previous export or backup will override all your PDF Annotator settings, tools and stamps!

Import your settings

Start PDF Annotator and click Extras, Settings.

Scroll down the list on the left until you see the Export/Import option and click it.

Press the Import Settings... button.

Locate your PASettings.PAZ file, which contains your backed up settings and tools.

Press Open to start the import process.

Confirm that you want to override all your local settings with the settings from the PASettings.PAZ file.

After clicking OK, PDF Annotator will restart itself. If you had multiple PDF Annotator windows open, make sure to close them manually.

After PDF Annotator has restarted itself, you will receive a final notice that the settings import has been successful.

That's it! PDF Annotator's settings and tools have now been reset to the state you previously backed up.
