It used to be I dragged and dropped pdf files directly into JMP 18 and earlier versions to import them. Now, * when I drag and drop a pdf into JMP 19, nothing happens * when I try opening a pdf via File > Open, nothing happens What has changed? (And why?) JMP Help still lists the PDF Import Wizard, but it doesn't tell us how to access it.

nav[aria-label="Primary Navigation"] { padding: 0; & ul { list-style: none; width: 100%; display: flex; flex-direction: row; justify-content: start; align-items: start; gap: 30px; padding: 0; & li { margin: 0; } & ul li { list-style: none; } } }

PDF Import Wizard in JMP19 not working or only changed behavior?

Issue fixed by opening pdf file and using "save as" to create new file version. Thanks JMP Tech Support!

Morning @Ressel ,

I just did an import of a table from a pdf, using drag and drop from a windows folder into JMP, and it worked as in previous versions. If the classic "restart JMP/your computer" doesn't resolve it for you, I'd recommend you contact Tech Support (support@jmp.com).

Thanks

Florian

@Florian_Vogt, thank you. Case TS-00247448.

It's possible the pdf file is at fault. Although, I can't see how, for now. Hence the case nr.
