Group and manage sequential pages

You can group sequential pages that belong together (for example chapters) in a section. You can divide a section into subsections. Up to 5 levels are possible here. A section is indicated by a bar in the [Structure] view.

Sections can be used for quick document preparation. For example: insert a tab before each chapter, set an appendix to [1-sided], or force each first page of a section to the front side of a sheet.

When a document is opened any PDF bookmarks are converted into sections in the document.
