Thanks for your patience.

As we recently have noticed earlier reported issue, so its pending for review and is not yet resolved. However the product team will surely consider investigating/fixing it as per development schedule and as soon as we have some definite updates regarding its resolution, we will let you know. Please be patient and spare us little time. We are sorry for this delay and inconvenience.

This topic is 2 and 1/2 years old but the last sentence in the last post says, “Please be patient and spare us little time. We are sorry for this delay and inconvenience.” but there is no follow up.

Thank you for posting.

We are afraid that PDFNET-41580 has not been resolved yet owing to priority and critical tickets. We will be sharing our findings here once significant progress is made in this regard.

Thank you for your response. I am quite confused. The reason I am vetting this software is so I can update PDF files, however, according to this post response files can not be updated because replaced text may cause the fragment to be misplaced. Am I missing something?
