LibreDraw has in the last few years become a very useful took for editing PDF
documents. I had to work with a 446 page PDF data sheet for a CPU family and
weed out the irrelevant pages. Previously I would have used PDF MOD for this
but it fails with some modern PDFs. But Draw imported the PDF and I was able to
go through and chop out pages I didn't want, and put highlight boxes and other
annotations around information that needed it. The only problem was a large
number of pages have tables in the PDF shown in landscape mode. To fix those
pages I had to rotate the content by 90 degrees plus reset the x y offset to 0.
If Draw could have different page size and orientation for different pages that
would be very useful. Even for my own Engineering work I've used it for many
industrial process flow drawings in the last 2 years, and a few times I've
needed mix page size, perhaps some A2 drawings with an A3 on the last page.
Yes, you can do them as separate documents but it's much easier to keep the
body of work in the one document and share the styles and other formatting.
Please do implement different page format and size in Draw. Please.
