    You can disable this in the preferences of the application.


    Thanks Brend,

    I found that option in Adobe reader for all target computers.

    Edit -> Prefrences - > Full Screen -> Uncheck ( Alert when docuemnt requests full screen)

    With best Regards!

    Hi josefm251239,

    Sorry as it is not possible to make full-screen mode as default to open PDFs in Adobe Reader application.

    There are no settings for this in the application, however, it can be set in the PDF settings.

    You can change it via "Initial view" settings under the document properties for a particular document.

    In Adobe Reader, the option to change the initial view is not available.

    Let us know if you need any further information.

    Regards,

    Meenakshi

    Hi Meenakshi,

    After we set a PDF file to go full screen via "initial view", the file pops up with a message every time we open it on a new computer.

    "This document is trying to put Acrobat in full-screen mode................ Would you like to allow this document to enter full-screen mode automatically"

    There is a checkbox that says remember my choice for this document.

    How do we make it so reader or acrobat don't ask to confirm each time we open it on a new computer and just accept the initial view settings?

    Thanks,
