I currently have FlexiPDF Pro 2022. In working with a sizeable PDF document I received in parts and have been assembling into a single file and setting up bookmarks for navigation, I have encountered some serious limitations. Can someone tell me if these issues have been fixed in FlexiPDF 2025?
1. The document has nested levels of bookmarks. When the document opens, the bookmark side panel opens with each major (top level) bookmark displayed, and those that have sub-levels show a square with a '+' to the left. In Adobe Reader, Adobe Acrobat, Foxit, Lightning PDF, and Bluebeam I can open the sub-levels listing with a single click on the '+'. In FlexiPDF this requires a double click. That's a waste of a click, and it's not the way any other PDF reader or editor works. Does FlexiPDF 2025 open and close the nested bookmarks listing with a single click? If not, please put this on the list of needed improvements for the next version.
2. Some of the bookmarks in the file are wrong -- they don't go to the page the bookmark labels say they belong to. I can edit the bookmark destinations directly in Adobe Acrobat and in PDF Lightning. I can't edit them in FlexiPDF 2022. Does FlexiPDF 2025 allow direct editing of bookmark destinations? If not, please add this to the list of needed functions.
3. The original file was created (I believe) using Adobe Acrobat. The major (top level) bookmark labels are formatted in a blue color and bold-face for emphasis. Adobe Reader respects this and displays the color and the bold face. So do Foxit and Bluebeam. FlexiPDF 2022 does not display the bookmark labels in color or in bold-face. It should respect the way the document was created and intended to display. Does FlexiPDF do this? If not, please add this to the list of desirable features.

Re: Features questions
Getting deeper into setting up the document I was working on. I found that the bookmark page associations were often incorrect and zoom levels were often inconsistent. Adobe Acrobat allowed me to right-click each bookmark to access and edit the properties, including the text color of the bookmark text; the text attributes (regular, bold, italic, or bold italic) and color; the page number in the document, and the view magnification for the bookmark (view page, view page actual size, view page width, visible ).
FlexiPDF needs this kind of functionality.
