Hello,

Does anyone by chance know how to view two seperate pdf files on seperate monitors. I am trying to put each pdf in full screen mode on seperate monitors. When i try placing each on the seperate monitor and do full screen, one jumps to the other screen covering the other file already in full screen mode.  

 

Hopefully that makes sense.

Once one doc is full-screen on top of the other full-screen doc, press WindowsKey-Shift-LeftArrow or WindowsKey-Shift-RightArrow to move top doc to other screen.

What is your OS and version? 

 

It may well be, that this is an OS limitation.

I am on Windows 10 and the newest adobe acrobat version. I have also tried on the previous version before the 23.

I forgot to add that i'm not trying to view the two pdf files side by side, split viewing, or two page view. I'm trying to view two seperate pdfs on their own monitors in full screen mode on both.
