Deleting article threads

FreePDF: The functions for working with Article strings are not included in FreePDF.

You can delete an article box, a range of boxes or an entire article thread. The text in the PDF itself will remain unaffected.

1.Select the Article tool icon_tool_article on the ribbon tab Insert | group Articles.
2.In the document, select the article box to be deleted by clicking on its center with the mouse.
Tip: The article box is only selected correctly if the blue handles appear at the corners.
3.Use the arrow of the Thread icon icon_tool_article to open its menu, and select Delete here. Alternatively: Press the Backspace key or the Del key on your keyboard.

4.The displayed dialog box Delete Article Thread lets you delete the entire article thread or only the currently selected article box (bead ID 3 here) from this article thread. Other options: Delete the article boxes in a specific bead ID range or all article boxes in a specific page range.
Explanation of bead IDs: When creating an article thread, FlexiPDF assigned a sequential number (bead ID) to each article box that was added within the article thread. This bead ID is displayed at the back of the article box header:
