The automatic outline is extremely helpful! But I wonder if we can SAVE the outline with the pdf, so that the outline is available in offline pdf readers.

Really like this! One CRUCIAL functionality which I would love to see is to have side by side double page view for the PDF, just like in the native Edge browser viewer. It's a feature that I only use all the time, and very handy when you have large screens or just want to get a quick overview of the entire research paper.
