Preferences Not Working

[Jim_Simon]

I have Reader set to open PDF's showing one page, zoomed to fit.  But that Preference doesn't always work.  I often get PDF's opened with other views and I have to manually set the view I want.

What gives?

May be that the PDF files have other view settings.

Hi @Jim_Simon 

The preferences that you set will work when the creator of the PDF leaves the settings at Default. If they choose other settings, the PDF will use those instead.
