Problem:

How can I display two consecutive pages of a single document in two screens (preferably in full screen mode)?

Context:

In genealogy research we are often checking small font documents that a given information has to be checked at the same time in the current page and a previous page. For this reason, it would be nice to use both screens to show consecutive pages of a document.

    With the menu Window > New Window you get a second window of the document.

    This is useful and kind of works. But unfortunately the two windows are independent and this is not what I was looking for.

    Ì wanted something like View >> Page Display >> Two-page view. This open the two pages in a single window.

    Then, I extend the window until it takes the two screens and have the two pages as I wanted but not in full screen. When i go to the next page, the content in the two screens change at the same time, as it is in a single window. The only thong i dont have is the full screen mode which is actually very nice for the documents i am working in.
