How can we set the Default to “New Window” for the “Create Link” – “Specify Open Preference”?

Report · Oct 18, 2012

We would like to set the "New Window" as default but can't find where to set it.. I looked through all the Perferences and could not find where this is set.

We see this when creating Links.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

I've never seen that dialog before and don't know how to invoke it. How did you? Version?

If you want to figure out yourself, use regshot to take a shot before and after setting that pref and compare the two shots. Then you'll have your answer.

Thanks for your reply. We are using Acrobat Pro 10.1.3 on Windows 7 64 bit workstation.

We see this when adding a link in a PDF.

Go to Tools, Content, Link. Highlight something, Creat Link, click Next. Pick somthing to Link too. Like another PDF and the Window in the first screen shot comes up.

I ran a Regshot and here are the results. Looks like all user keys which would be normal but there must be a way to set the default in the Preferences? This does not seem to be a setting that stays if you will so there must be something over-riding it.
