Question

PDF not automatically opening after being exported from Pages

Hi

 

I am using macOS Catalina 10.15.5. I am using Pages version 10.1 (6913) and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC 2020.012 20043.

 

When I export to PDF the PDF does not automatically open. How can I change the settings to get it to open automatically when I export? Going through the system preferences in either application doesn't show me how to.

 

Thanks

 

Kevin

    I don't see any connection with Adobe Acrobat Reader here. This application has no hot folder function or so. It can't recognise when or where a new PDF has been created on you system. The command for opening newly created PDFs has to come from somewhere else such as macOS or the Pages application itself.
