Can I set to single page view instead of continuous scrolls in Preview?

I just don't like and feel uncomfortable to view the PDF in continuous scrolls mode. however, it is set to be default in Preview of Lion.
How could I change the defaut setting to make it open in single page view instead of continuous scrolls mode?
Thx

hmm - I have the same problem - meaning each time I open a preview file it defaults to continous scroll, which for whatever reason, I hate.  So each fiel I have to use the view menu to change that particual view to single page.  It seems if I quite that file and reopen it on the smae computer it will open in single page view.  But any new documents default to the hated continuous scroll view
It sounds like your machine defaults to single page.  I assume youa re also usig the latest Lion release.  So there must be a way to change the default view of Preview, but I can't seem to find the setting

    You can increase the font size and automatically page view changes. Go to menubar; Reading -> PDF View or Epub Text Size (depending upon the ebook) and increase the size.

    Adjust these as needed but does it make any difference?

  • Single Page View

    How do I set the PDF so when it opens you see the entire page rather than only the top half zoomed up?

    Hi,
    Please check if you have set initial view to the PDF file.
    Open the file in Adobe Acrobat/Reader
    File  - Properties
    click on initial view tab
    If you have Adobe Acrobat, you can change it to single page view.
    Regards

  • Enable scrolling instead of single page view (as default)

    I have ebooks that open using "single page view", which is where you can't scroll DOWN the pages, it just automatically goes to the next page if you scroll the mouse down.  I want to enable scrolling automatically.  I can do this by going:    View >Page display >Enable scrolling... but when I close the document it doesn't save the settings ???

    You can set this under File - Document Properties - Initial View.
    However, I think that the local settings of the user (if set) will override
    the document's setting.

  • Annoying single page view in full screen mode

    I have checked the “Enable Scrolling” in the “View/Page Display” menu to have a continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) and avoid page bouncing when moving from the bottom of a page to the top of the next page. It works as expected when in windowed mode but not in full screen mode.
    - Why isn’t it possible to have continuous page flow (with gaps between pages) when in full screen mode? It is as if Adobe Reader disregards the “View/Page Display” menu preferences and always reverts to “Single Page View” when in full screen mode!
    - Also it would be nice to have an option to display a vertical scroll bar to the extreme right of the screen in full screen mode to be able to quickly scroll the document.
    These two features are the primary ones that make me still using Foxit-Reader instead of Adobe Reader albeit Foxit-Reader has a lower PDF rendering quality.

    I have same problem.
    In Full Screen Mode , most functions are *NOT* working. For example , Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars etc. Even use keyboard shortcut , they just *NOT* working.
    I am wondering is any chance to make Show/Hide Menu Bar , Show/Hide Toolbars working on Full Screen Mode ?
    At least , please add some keyboard shortcut to change Page Display .
    Best Regards,

  • Can ibook display a single page on the screen?

    To my understanding, ibook displays two pages at a time on the display on an iPad.   Does it have the ability to display just a single page on the screen with nothing fancy (just a flat sheet) ?    I was thinking of ePub powerpoint slides and I should like to display them just as a single slide or page.
    Thank You,
    G

    Yes, you can view a single page in iBooks on your iPad screen.  Put the iPad in Portrait, not landscape and voila, you'll have a single page view.

  • Can you set a web page as a 'home page' on the i phone safari as you would?

    Can you set a home page or will the safari button always take you to the last web site you were on?

    You cannot set a Home Page in Safari but if you save your favorite bookmark to the home screen, you can use that to open the browser on iPhone.
    To do this:
    Open Safari and open the page you want for the "Home Page".
    Tap the "+" at the bottom of the screen and select "Save to Home Screen"
    You can then name it whatever you wish and tap Save.
    This will create an icon on the home screen that you can tap on to always open Safari to that page.

    How can I set my Messages to view by date ?
    I don't like them to organize by thread.
    Are there any software to help me?

    You can't. By design and intention messages are provided/organized in conversation/threaded format by each contact you exchange messages with and the messages within each conversation are sorted by date.
    There is no 3rd party software/apps available that can change this with the included Messages application.

  • Adobe acrobat pro x change the program's default page display to single page view - Windows 8, HP La

    adobe acrobat pro x change the program's default page display to single page view - Windows 8, HP Laptop

    Since there were no answers, I will take a stab at a reponse. For the 2nd method, I suspect you could simply select the print or press job options to get the desired results or turn off "use local fonts" in Acrobat. If you check the font list, the fonts are probably not embedded and that is likely the problem.
    I noticed that you have both Reader and Acrobat installed and that might cause some conflict, but should not be the issue here. If you were to uninstall Reader, you would have to repair Acrobat. The conflict here is that you might have problems with the one opening when you want the other. If it works for you, then don't worry about it.
    For technique 1, I suspect you may be using IE 9 that has apparently been a problem since it came out. I have refused to install it. However, it may simply be that PDF Maker does not work correctly with your browser, or got deactivated and needs to be allowed to run in your browser (IE I am assuming).

  • Can't keep stable continuous single page view

    One day my Acrobat 9 pro mysteriously started to display output in a 2-page view by default.  I have changed the view as well as edited preferences (even trying to toggle it by setting preferences as dual page and back to single page continuous to no avail.  It seems that if I change view and preference and then save a pdf it will reopen as desired in single page continuous.  But as soon as I print to Adobe from Word or download a pdf or tiff, the resulting file opens in dual page.  This is a minor hassle but doing it multiple times per day begins to get grating -- I have tried the 'file repair' option and everything else I can think of -- what might I be doing wrong? (I am on a machine with Vista).  Thanks -- Scott

    (Boy have I had a hard time responding to the reply!)
    I still can't get the setting to stick no matter what I do -- setting edit> preferences, file > properties, and view>single page continous.  If i save a PDF with it in the single page continuous view it seems to reopen that way.  Any PDF I download or create from word comes back in 2-page view.  Oh well.
    For what it is worth I tried emailing a reply but it bounced back and the for the longest time I have not been able to find a way to post a reply.
