PDF file opens minimized and can’t maximize

I "open" Adobe Acrobat, it shows up in my Taskbar as running (appears with dot under it) but the window is now completely "shrunken"
- instead of a window with a document visible, it appears as shrunken down only a toolbar, and the toolbar
- worse, that toolbar is now just a three dot menu

I can't tug on any boundaries to make it bigger (it seems really to be just a toobar for a hidden window, and toolbars, unlike windows, can't be resized)

if I try to select it using alt-tab all the other apps' windows are normal but this one is not (just the app icon and document name)

Two years later I'm encountering the same issue this morning. Nothing I've tried seems to resolve the issue. I have resorted to using a browser to view my pdf files. I 'd greatly appreciate any help.

Hey there,

I'm not exactly sure of your workflow, but I can surely relate it to Adobe Acrobat or Reader PDF viewer. Are you using any one of these app to open your PDF file?

May be your PDF isn't opening at its Actual Size. Rather than opening file, Open Acrobat Or Reader (whatever you have)>File>Open>select file and check.

What's the % you see in the menu bar? Set it to 100% and Actual Size. 

Once done, Navigate to Edit>Preferences>Document and Select "Restore last view setting..">OK>Reboot App.

Does it make any difference?

Thanks,
