How to set default page transition auto flip setting to 0

Question

I'm exporting an interactive PDF from inDesign to PDF. My reader is Acrobat Pro DC. In the reader, the Page Transitioning > Auto Flip setting is set at 5 seconds by default. Is there anyway to have that Auto Flip box unchecked and seconds set to 0 by default?

I know that I can do this manually, each time I export. But why? Who wants to open a PDF, of any sort, and have it start automatically flipping the pages every 5 seconds? Seems like the default should be 0.

Thanks!

Hi rsbisaYou might need to change the Page Transitions settings under Export in InDesign. Below is the screenshot:Thanks!Shivam

I'm using standalone DC. The PDF is set to open Full Screen, BTW. The doc is created in inDesign and exported with the Open in Full Screen setting.

I am able to fix this after export by unchecking the Page Transition > Auto Flip box, then Save. After that, I can distribute the PDF to others and it works fine without Auto Flipping.

It just seems odd that the default setting would be Auto Flip > 5 secs. Who wants to open a PDF and have it start immediately flipping pages? This is such a random setting that would only be useful in limited instances.

Perhaps the answer lies within inDesign export settings?
