Table of Contents

Choose Table of Contents at the left of the toolbar to see the document's headings. The current section is highlighted. Choose a heading to jump to it; press Escape or click outside the list to close it.

In paged reading, the list also shows reader page numbers. These may differ from exported PDF pages because the window and export paper have different sizes. Documents without headings have no contents entries. Table of Contents is also available in Reading Mode.

Document Overview

Choose Document Overview at the far right of the toolbar, or press Option–Command–S, to open a miniature preview beside the document. Use the same button or shortcut to close it. Drag the divider to change its width.

In Continuous layout, the outline marks the passage you are reading. Click the minimap to jump, or drag the outline to move through the document. The minimap scrolls along with the outline, reaching the bottom together. You can also scroll the strip on its own to look ahead without moving your reading position.

In Paged layout, choose a numbered thumbnail to jump to a page. With Two Pages, each thumbnail shows a complete spread. The last spread may have an empty right half.

Overview and Info open independently. Info appears to the right of Overview, and both columns can be resized. The overview follows your reading layout, zoom, and theme. Very large documents may be readable even when their overview cannot be prepared.

Find text

Click Search or press Command–F. Matches in the displayed document are highlighted and brought into view. Search also works when the toolbar is hidden.

  • Command–G or Return: next match.
  • Command–Shift–G or Shift–Return: previous match.
  • Command–E: use selected document text as the search text.
  • Match Case: match uppercase and lowercase exactly.
  • Escape or Done: leave search and return to the document.
