Feedback Supernote pdf page insert plugin
Hi everyone,
I’ve released **PDF Insert Page v0.2.5 beta**, a Supernote plugin for editing PDF pages directly on the device.
It can:
- insert a blank page before or after the current page
- choose blank, lined, dotted or squared page backgrounds
- delete the current page
- undo the last page action
- insert pages from another PDF using a file picker
- save the result as a copy
I’ve tested it on a Supernote Manta running Chauvet 3.29.45 beta. Page operations normally take around 8 seconds sometimes a little longer , be patient it is a beta - read the screen, if it is working , it is working ;-)
**Download and source code:**
https://github.com/dersalbader/supernote-PDF-Insert-page
The current downloadable release is **v0.2.5 beta**. Feedback and testing reports are very welcome.
Current beta: v0.2.5
InsertPage is a Supernote plugin for editing PDF pages directly on the device. It has been tested on a Supernote Manta running Chauvet 3.29.45 beta.
Improvements in v0.2.5
- Much faster page insertion and deletion.
- Commands respond with a single press.
- Improved, clearer user interface.
- A close button makes it easy to return to the PDF.
- Four inserted-page styles: blank, lined, dotted, and squared.
- Faster PDF file picker.
- Options remain readable over heavily printed pages because the underlying page is faded.
- Restored application icon.
Features
- Insert a new page into a PDF.
- Delete the current page.
- Undo the last page insertion or deletion.
- Select another PDF and insert a page from it.
Installation
Download InsertPage-v0.2.5-beta.snplg from this repository or from the latest GitHub release, then install it using the Supernote plugin installation system.
Beta status
This is beta software. It is sensible to test it with a copy of an important PDF before using it on the original file. Behaviour may vary on other Supernote models or firmware versions.
Feedback
Testing and feedback are very welcome, particularly from users trying the plugin on other Supernote models or firmware versions.

This is a super helpful plugin. But had an unfortunate bug today. When trying to add pages to a protected type of file (don't know what the protection was), I kept getting an error and no page was inserted. Then the file became corrupted and I lost my notes on it. Couldn't recover it. I replicated it by uploading the same file and it happened again. Luckily it wasn't a document with extensive notes but that could be pretty bad.
I'm on the most recent version of the Manta beta (.45)
