I’m experiencing an issue with the Preview application. I am reviewing a project file (133 pages). When I am only reading, everything works fine. However, when I start highlighting or using the markup tools (pen, etc.), the application automatically closes after about one minute, and I lose all the highlights and notes I had made.
How can I resolve this issue?
iPad Pro, iPadOS 26
