Favorites let you save important places in documents and jump back to them later.

Add a favorite #

Press Ctrl + B to add the current page to favorites.
You can also use Ctrl + K command palette and run Add Favorite.

Favorites sidebar #

The favorites sidebar shows favorites saved across documents.
To show or hide it:
  • use Ctrl + K command palette and run Toggle Favorites
  • or assign a shortcut to CmdFavoriteToggle
When the sidebar is visible, selecting a favorite navigates to that saved place. If the favorite is in another document, SumatraPDF opens that document.

Show favorites from command palette #

Press Ctrl + K, then type $ to show favorites in the command palette.
Favorites from the current document are listed first. Favorites from other documents are shown after them and include the file name.

Bind favorites command palette to b #

You can bind CmdCommandPalette $ to a key in advanced settings.
Open Settings / Advanced Options..., find the Shortcuts section and add:
Shortcuts [
    [
        Cmd = CmdCommandPalette $
        Key = b
    ]
]
After saving, pressing b opens the command palette directly in favorites mode.
