Page Display Preferences

I am running Adobe Acrobat Pro 9.2 on Widnows 2008r2 and am having a problem saving my settings.  I am trying to change the Page Display preference Page Layout from Automatic to Two-up.  I set that preference and it works fine until I close Acrobat.  When I open it again the preference is set back to Automatic.

Thanks but I am using  Edit>Preferences>Page Display but it will not say what I set it to after restarting the program.

  • Changing Page Display Preferences

    Is there a way to change the page display preferences for all PDFs using the registry or something that can be scripted on install.
    I want to hide the navigation panel buttons on the left and untick the "Create Links from Urls" checkbox..
    Any help is most appriciated.
    Thanks

    I think I've figured out how to solve this pixelation problem. Apparently the problem is not specific to Acrobat, but can arise with some older programs that weren't designed for Windows 8 (see more here). The solution is to follow the steps outlined in that link: pin Acrobat to the task bar, right click and select Properties and then the Compatibility tab, then make sure the box next to "Disable display scaling on high DPI settings" is checked. Voila, now the Acrobat 10 interface appears in beautiful high resolution.
    I hope this helps anyone who might have this problem down the road!

  • Adobe plugin cannot set Page Display Preferences

    I have a lot of scanned documents and read them within IE 6.0 through a web interface using a custom solution. I have to use IE 6.0 so I can't just upgrade or use another browser, unfortunately. The issue is that now, all of a sudden, the documents open up in Fit Page view instead of Fit Width view. I have set preferences in the Adobe Reader application and tried to change them in the plugin window, but it never keeps it's settings. I have tried Adobe reader versions 6, 8, & 9 and they all do the same thing. I have tried changing the setting in the plugin then closeing everything and rebooting, but it still doesn't keep the settings. Is there a configuration file or a registry setting for the plugin that I can force a value? I've been working on this for weeks now and I can't think of anything else I can try.
    Thanks in advance

  • Reader not honoring Page Display preferences

    Hello. I am using Adobe Reader X on Win7 Ultimate (x64).
    I have set the following in Edit - Preferences - Page Display:
    Page Layout:     Single Page Continuous
    Zoom:               Fit Width
    Resolution:        Use system setting: (96 pixels/inch)
    However, no documents will open fit to the width.
    I have experimented with various settings for the Page Layout, Zoom and Resolution, however, many times a document will not be opened fit to the windows width. What am I missing?
    Thanks.

    Oh. I was afraid of that answer.
    I am generating this document using a system called LATEX (which I have no idea how to use). I figured out I have to add "pdfstartview=FitH" to the hyperref command, like this:
    \usepackage[pdfstartview=FitH]{hyperref} % For PDF clickable links - load this last.

  • Page display resolution setting

    Many or all CS5 apps would benefit from the same kind of Page Display preferences that Acrobat Pro provides. It allows you to set page display resolution at the pixels per inch setting that will display content at true actual size (100pct viewing). By that I mean an 8.5x11 page on screen is the same size as an 8.5x11 page in your hand. It may be that Acrobat's default "Use system setting" figure (81ppi on my display) is all that's needed to get reasonably close, but InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, etc., don't have this ability. And Acrobat can be setting to any ppi that gets the job done. Print designers, especially, need true actual size to have a better feel for the scale of the physical piece and design elements on it, notably including type.

    That's a fair answer to a load of nonsense ...
    1. The original poster was not concerned about pixels, and in fact showed by his very feature request that he was acutely aware of the difference between pixels and real, actual, physical dimensions. The OP did not ask for, nor does he want, measurement in pixels -- in fact, he wants the exact opposite.
    2. There is no measurement unit called "pixel". A "pixel" is not a defined distance, and there are no online conversion tools to convert between picas or inches and pixels. If there are, they are a load of nonsense as well.
    3. Good news is that CS5 has, yeah!, "pixels" as measurement units. But ... since the pixel is not a really existing unit of measure, it's of no use at all and you might as well pretend (in your mind) what CS5 pretends on the screen: one pixel equals one point.

  • How to have Safari remember PDF display preference (two pages continuous)?

    I am using the built-in PDF viewer in safari and every single time I am a opening a link or document I have to right-click and choose "two pages continuous" (or at least zoom out) to obtain suitable display preferences.
    Is there a way to have Safari remember the last-used or preferred display settings for PDF? All recent versions of Safari (including Yosemite) have this problem.
    Thank you so much,
    Christophe

    Thank you most kindly Aandi,
    Exactly!! It boggles my mind sometimes ... I'm reading manuals all day long, running a dozen complicated applications (making movies, music for movies, and now 'books'), and my brain did not register the most obvious ... a dozen times I scanned that menu item. Tick, tock.
    You help is most appreciated...

  • Why doesn't Page Display obey its setting in Preferences

    Using Reader 9.2. I have Page Display setting in Preferences set to 'Single Page Continuous'. Yet when I open a pdf, the Page Display is set to 'Single Page' instead of 'Single Page Continuous'. Why?

    I want to display the page the way *I* like.
    I guess there are two ways to look at that. Since they created it, maybe they want you to see it they way "they" like. That's the basic premise behind PDF. But yeah, it can be a bit irritating for those on the receiving end.
    abdu wrote:
    As far anyone is concerned, the document setting could have been a default setting of the pdf creator tool and the document author is not even aware of this setting!
    Probably not. The default setting is "default" which allows the viewer to control it with their preferences.

    So Adobe.. please fix this setting or add a checkbox to override the document setting.
    I think a checkbox is a fine idea.

  • Configuring Page Display in Preferences

    I have Adobe Reader 6.0 on a Win98SE computer. When I go to "Edit", "Preferences", "Page Display" comes up first. There is a section at the bottom "Magnification" with 2 boxes, Default Zoom, Max Fit Visible Zoom. Both boxes have question marks, other jibberish, what am I supposed to enter in these boxes? I keep on getting an error window saying "The value of the magnification must be "Fit Page", "Fit Width", "Fit Visible", "Actual Size", "Reflow" or it must be a value between 8.33% and 6400%", then won't let me make any other settings, I just keep getting the same error window. I am a non-techie so please make your reply easy to follow. Thanks.

    Reader always opens, maximized, when pdf accessed through IE7. I have tried to re-size, close, and re-launch from browser but reader ALWAYS reverts to opening maximized. I can open Reader, minimize it, and then access a pdf from the browser and it will open inside the minimized Reader window but that is the only way I can open a pdf to a minimized Reader window from my IE7. How do I clear this or reset something so the pdf will open in a minimized Reader window? I've looked in so many different places for this answer over the past few days and nothing.

  • Adobe reader x Page Rendering Preferences not retained - ragged display

    Preferences>Page Display>Rendering>Smooth Text setting defaults to None, so the the rendering of PDF files on a LCD screen is very ragged.
    When I set the value to "For Laptop/LCD Screens" the rendering is spot on.
    However, this setting is not remembered when I exit the reader, so next time I open a pdf document I have to reset the preference settings again.
    Any ideas how to retain the settings, or is there a registry key I can set to do this?
    Note: This is on a machine at work (Windows 7) so possibly could it be due to administative permissions which doesn't update the preference settings?

    It is certainly possible that your SysAdmin has locked down your preferences.  Try some other setting and see if it sticks.
    Also, that preference is set by default in a normal installation - so again, perhaps your SysAdmin has customized.

  • Bookmarks Panel and Page Display

    BACKGROUND:
    I am using Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 and now when I convert a Word2010 doc to PDF using Acrobat 9 Pro Create PDF. Once the file oepns in Acrobat, I then make the following changes:
    File > Properties > Initial View >Navigation Tab (Set to Bookmarks Panel and Page) Page Layer (Set to Single Page Continuous)
    Preferences are set to: Open cross-document links in same window; allow layer state to be set by user information; allow documents to hide the men bar, toolbars, and window controls.
    PDF/A View Mode is sent to Only for PDF/A documents.
    The only thing that I have done different is that I did open was Adobe LiveCycle Designer ES8.2 and tested converting a word document into a form last week. I then attempted to convert files from WORD2010 to Acrobat Pro 9 on Friday and say the problems. I am now also having problems with Adobe LiveCycle.
    Attempted Resolution: Our Help Desk uninstalled and then re-installed Acrobat Pro 9 but that has not resolved the issue. They are recommending that they wipe my profile and build it again. I am hoping to avoid that and hope someone can help me with this issue.

    The Bookmark Panel to the left of the pdf is not displaying - I have checked everything (and double checked under preferences to ensure that under Documents > Open Settings > Restore last view settings when reopening documents is Not checked.)
    Have reinstalled Acrobat and still am having issues. The only thing I did was open AcrobatLive and converted a doc to a fillable form - I am getting error messages with that now as well.

  • Page display in Reader 9.1

    Hi
    I like to have my pdf files open in Adobe Reader with the window maximised, the bookmarks in the left hand column and the pages displayed to fill the width of the remaining window space.
    I have tried various settings in Preferences to try and achieve this but still find some documents opening differently.  It becomes tedious to continually enlarge pages to fit the width of the window.
    Can anyone tell me what settings affect the page display and how I should set these to display the pages to my requirement.
    Eric43

    I have tried that but still the documents return to their original state after closing and re-opening.
    I have also tried every combination of preferences but no matter what settings I use the document still opens as originally viewed (usually one complete page view).
    I can only assume that either the view is set by the author and is locked and can only be temporarily altered when viewing or I am missing something in the preferences settings.
    How can the settings for an individual document be set to default?

  • Display preferences/calibration

    20 inch i mac (alum). Went to display preferences and went to calibrate a profile(expert mode). I could not get the sliders to hide the apple at all. Seemed the sliders were all out of sync, one slider was off the page and moving it back to hide the apple did not help? It says move sliders so the apple blends (not seen) in background. Well it would not work or do it( could not blend the apple? why is that? Now it seems they are all off. Except the imac one which is good and left as is. Seems RGB is off etc. Is there a way to get those back?

    Thanks for your reply!
    I found and tried SuperCal and got a very nice result, with one problem: SuperCal does not allow a wide enough range of color temperature adjustment. The least blue result I could get was still too blue.
    After extensive experimentation I got somewhat better results with the Apple tool, by carefully choosing values and then setting the color temperature to about 6200 K instead of D65. Whites and dark colors are now fine. The midrange is still too blue, but much less so. At this point I can live with it.
    It still seems bizarre to me that the default values are out of the range of the Apple tool, though. This is only one of a few signs I've found that these machines were rushed out the door...

  • Can't Change Page Display

    Although I have changed the Page Display in Preferences to 100% it continues to open documents an the web at 164%.
    Is ther another setting for this??
    James.

    You are most likely viewing an ePub file.  The only controls are the font size controls, and the view will automatically move to a two page view when the combination of screen size/font size is enough to display the content in that view.  On my MacBook Pro this happens in a medium font view with the window maximized to full width.

    Welcome to Apple's discussion groups.
    I'll presume that you can adjust the brightness after bootup. If that display preference is kept in PRAM, it's possible that the PRAM battery is wearing out.
    Here's what Apple says about what's stored in PRAM:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1242
    To test that possibility, turn off "Set date and time automatically" in the Date & Time panel of System Preferences (if it's set), shut down and unplug your Mac, then let it sit for a few minutes. When you reboot it, check the system date and time. If the PRAM battery is failing, those may be set incorrectly.
    iFixit describes replacing the PRAM battery of an iMac G5 as of "moderate" difficulty. See these pages:
