How to split window vertically (side by side view)

The Acrobat Pro DC seems cannot split window vertically. In reading Journal Manuscript, we want to shift between pages of Figures and text. The 'split windows' is very efficient. However, the Acrobat Pro DC just split window horizontally. It is inefficient for reading. Is there some options to split window vertically?

Hi wonderful_Cosmos8984,

 

Thank you for reaching out.

 

Could you please tell us the Acrobat version number you are using? Also, what do you mean by "normal version" here?

Are you using Acrobat Reader? More information would be helpful.

 

Thanks,

Meenakshi

          It may not meet your needs, but try Windows>Spreadsheet Split.  It will split your single doc into 4 smaller viewing panels, and you can adjust the divider by dragging it around.
