PDF always open at 100% anywhere

Hi everyone,

 

Does there is a way so a PDF file always open at 100% despite the preferences of the person who opens it?

 

Asking the concerned people to change their settings is not an option unfortunately.

 

Thanks,

Nothing that anyone changes in Preferences will affect their files for anyone else. They are personal settings. This is File > Properties in Acrobat.

Not even then... I believe the Accessibility settings override even the Open Options settings of the file, which can be set in Acrobat. The only thing that might trump the Accessibility settings is embedding a script into the file to ensure it opens at a specific zoom level.

Did you try setting Open Options in Acrobat's File Properties? Some apps will ignore it, but Acrobat Reader should not. Indeed, people often complain that they do not like their Reader doing this, so take care with your choices.

My supervisor will talk to our boss about it.

Thank you again.
