Dears,

 

I'm creating a pdf files through InDesign, and export it as .pdf file. I choose to fit to height.

 

The pdf file is good at Acrobat Reader. But when people view it using another pdf viewer, they display the page with some parts of the pages before and after it. Is there any way I make other viewers than Acrobat read "fit to height"

 

And about interactivity, is there any way I make my pdf file to be read from any other pdf viewer thab acrobat and read my inner links and hyperlinks.

 as I cannt force my clients to use Acrobat as I do, they have their own preferred pdf viewers

 

 

The files are created in InDesign

 

Thabks in advance,

Lina

In short: no. You don't have any control over the way the countless third-party PDF viewers will display your file.

 

Your hyperlinks should normally work across various PDF viewers though, although it also depends on the way you implement them. Can you show some examples of your hyperlinks?
