When are the EdgeHTML PDF features coming in?

It's really taxing to use the new Edge as a PDF reader. It's better than Chrome but it's still not Edge.

 

Please add the following features

1. Option to enable/disable Touch Drawing. Can't scroll with fingers when using a pen without exiting Ink mode.

2. Add a highlighter to the toolbar. Using the contextual menu to highlight text is 3 extra steps. Without a mouse, it's really hard to select and highlight. And it doesn't work in Ink mode because text can't be selected while inking.

3. Add a Save button. The current Save As button doesn't help with productivity and file management.

 

Please bring back these features or at least hold off updating the Old Edge with the newer one. I'm still using it as my default PDF reader (I use new Edge for browsing:smile:).

Thanks.
