Hi

In the new Adobe reader DC, is it not possible to split the screen vertically in order to look at two sections of the document at the same time?

Best,

Dagfinn

    I think there isn't an available option to do this, but i use to open the miniatures ribbon, expand it to a third of the screen and zoom in, It is pretty usefull for look at references. Isn't as good as properly tool for split screen, but works for me, hope it works for you too.

     

     

     

    Have a nice day,

      Yes you can. You will need an Adobe Acrobat to do this. 

       

      Save the same document with different names and open both on your Adobe Acrobat program. Navigate to: 

       

      View (Alt V)-----> Compare File (C)

      I think some of people in this discussion have not understood that when we say "you need Adobe Acrobat" we mean "You can't do this with the free Adobe Acrobat Reader (so you would have to pay for Adobe Acrobat)."

      If you are using Acrobat Pro DC use the menu Window>Spreadsheet Split and drag the horizontal handle off the top or bottom of the page 🙂

      Oops, That force both side by sides to the same vertical position. I should have checked before posting. . . It looked good 😞

      I'm having the same issue. 

      When I split the screen there are two windows one above and one below. 

      What I'd like to see is the same document side by side so I can check, for example, an index and make sure everything is on the right page. 

      This is very difficult to do when the pages are stacked on top and bottom when the document is in portrait.

      Create a copy of the file, open both copies, select Window - Tile - Vertically.

      In the preferences disable the tabs view of documents.

      I tried, but this does not seem to solve the problem.
