Question

View pages from same PDF side by side

Hi - I would like to view two pages from the same PDF document side by side in order to compare.

 

If I go to window/split, the two pages appear above and below each other, which is not what I want. I want them to appear side by side.

 

The only workaround I can find is to go window/new window, and then select window/tile/vertically. But is this is a copy of the document or an instance of the same document? If I edit it on one side, will it also edit the document on the other side?

 

There must be an easier way of doing this. I cannot believe this feature is so difficult to use in a premium product such as Adobe.

Hi @Moeiz5F88 

 

Hope you are doing well.

As per the issue description that you want to view 2 pages side by side. You could use the view option in Acrobat, here are steps to follow:

Open file> select View> Page display> Two page view

Let us know if that helps.

 

Thanks,

Harsh

That function only allows me to view two consecutive pages side by side. What if, for example, I want to view pages 1 and 48 side by side, and annotate them both simultaneously?

Okay, I get it. But unfortunately, this feature is not available as of now. However, we always welcome new suggestions and feature requests. Here is a form for feature requests and bug reports:
