I have acrobat pro on my iPad Pro. The iPad is connected to a TV via a lightning to HDMI connector. I want my HD format pdf presentation to display full screen on the tv. I can only get it to mirror. How do I get full screen?

You can tap the PDF once after opening it in Acrobat to enter full screen mode and use the spacebar to advance the screens.

Sorry, just Acrobat. It's the full version with editing capabilities, part of my CC.

Actually, what you have installed on your iPad is the free Acrobat Mobile Reader which provides only a small subset of the features of Acrobat Pro on Windows or MacOS plus some extended features by virtue of your CC (or DC) subscription. And what you are currently getting connecting your iPad to a television is all you can get from this software.

Thanks for the clarification Dov. Is there any other PDF reader you know of that can display PDFs full screen via HDMI on iPad? Does Adobe have anything? Keynote and PowerPoint both have full screen capabilities on iPad, but I've been unable to find a good PDF full screen capability for iPad.
