Adobe Acrobat - Completely, fully disable 100% of any and all auto window resizing / document rezooming functions

Adobe Acrobat should remove all features that result in automatically resizing the window, or automatically adjusting the zoom level, of a newly opened document. I do not want window size or initial zoom level to ever change, except when I make manual adjustments. The automatic functions are a major hindrance and time-waster.

@Passionate_mindset9922 You can change this setting in Acrobat Preferences. For example, in my preferences, I actually have this off ‘Restore last view settings when reopening documents’ — I don’t want this as I do open alot of PDFs

Just go through the Preferences. Some people want it this way, and others like you and I, may not want it.

I am aware of these preferences. However, the preference “Restore last view settings” only applies to PDFs you already opened once, resize/readjust, and then close. It does not apply for new PDF files you open for the first time. My job requires me to pull new PDFs from a provider which always has the following options selected. There is no way to override this “Resize” and “Center” options.

@Passionate_mindset9922 So, essentially, you need to tell that provider to stop setting those Windows option if you can. Can you check to see how the PDF was created?
