Question

Open PDF and it is too small

So i open PDFs and then it is always too small.

So i click settings and options my only option is to type in my name.  That doesnt help. Where can i get to actual settings?

So i have to move cursor all the way down to the right to click that ADD button.

Then the pdf shifts left and when i scroll down it re-aligns and is centered. weird.

How do i set this up so that the initial pdf isnt small and i dont have to go down to that plus sign to make it bigger every single time.

I enlarged the size and then did a SAVE AS and when i went back in , it was again, too small and i had to enlarge again. I cant save in the size i want? why is this so limited??

There are also issues once in a while where stuff gets jumbled, but that is rare.  Why is there no settings option to set things up as you want them??

    You'd have to ask Mr and Mrs Screen Name...

    Sorry, my mistake. It IS an 800 number. But it still isn't for free software.

    Hi Gmoproa,

    Sorry to hear your experience.

    There is an option to change the settings as per your requirement which is limited to certain level.

    For detailed description you may refer to the help documents where everything mentioned steps by step-

    Viewing PDFs and viewing preferences, Adobe Acrobat

    Adjusting PDF views

    You may also check the Preferences>Document> Check"Restore last view settings when opening document" is selected.

    So after making the changes (as suggested in the help doc) you need to close the app and when you open it next it would appear in same way you closed it.

    Let us know if it still doesn't help you or this is not what you were referring to.

    Thanks,

    Akanchha

    How do you get to this screen??

    The preferences settings control how the application behaves whenever you use it; they are not associated with any particular PDF document. To access the preferences dialog, choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Acrobat / Adobe Acrobat Reader > Preferences (Mac OS).

    There is no choice for Edit. please let me know.
