We have bug tracker (http://pdfedit.petricek.net/bt/main_page.php), you can report it as a feature request (I think it sounds reasonable). > > System specs: > - Gentoo Linux > - gcc 4.1.2 > - PDFedit 0.4.1 > - compiled from source, no custom compile or link flags > - Boost 1.34.1 > - compiled from source, compile flags: > -O2 -march=athlon64 -mfpmath=sse -mmmx -msse -msse2 -msse3 > -m3dnow -pipe -fomit-frame-pointer > - AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 6000+ > - 4GB RAM > > > Good job!
