Have documents always open in Fit to Width Scrolling

[MSRadell]

How do I have my documents always open in Fit to Width Scrolling mode? They used to open this way but now they don't and it's very frustrating.

Thanks,
Mark

Hi @MSRadell 

Hope you are doing well.

As per the issue description that you want to open PDFs in fit to width view. Here are the steps you can follow:

1. Edit> Preferences> Page Display> under "Zoom" dropdown select "Fit width"

 (for mac: you can find preferences under. Acrobat DC> Preferences)

Let us know if that helps.

Thanks,

This does not work in Acrobat Pro (current version, 2024.002.20857). I always want ALL PDFs to open in fit width and smooth scroll. Always.

I had the prior version set to do this but the latest update blew away my preferences. I have the prefs set as above but all files open in "fit window" with jump scroll which I have always hated.

None of the available options in "Page Display" result in behavior that matches "Fit to Width Scrolling" - specifically, the *smooth* scrolling between page breaks. There is still an irritating, abrupt jump from one page to another.

That has nothing to do with the zoom level. In the same location change the Page Layout setting to "Single Page Continuous".
