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.

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

How do i change the display in ADE to a single page view instead of two pages side by side? I find it distracting and prefer to look at one page at a time.

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.

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,

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.

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.

Can't drag and drop from page view

Can't drag and drop from page view to desktop even though plus icon shows up for duplicating the page. On Mac 10.9.2 Acrobat XI. I don't want to extract through the menu and associated dialogues. Its slow and cumbersome.

Hi Peterbruce,
Acrobat for Windows will let you select pages in the Pages panel and drag them to your desktop, but that isn't an option in Acrobat for Mac OS. You can drag thumbnails from the Pages panel in one doc, to the Pages panel in another, however.
Best,
Sara

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).

How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

Acrobat single page view - can't make it work.

Hi, everyone.
I have created a book using Blurb's template for InDesign. After I finished the book I exported it as a PDF file and wanted to review it on my notebook and iPad but Acrobat only displays it in two page view (the 'spread' as InDesign refers to it).
I've tried a vew options in Acrobat including view in single page mode but so far haven't been able to make it work. In addition, although I have chosen the option in Acrobat to have a space displayed between pages when viewing the 2-page spread, the space still doesn't show.
Any ideas as to how this can be accomplished ?
I need to be able to see this PDF on page at a time instead of the 2-page spread as Acrobat displays it now.
Thank you in advance for your help.

The fix is on the InDesign side since what appears to be two pages is really a single page in the PDF. Export as single pages, not spreads. For example: http://indesignsecrets.com/interactive-pdf-from-indesign-cs5-always-has-spreads-on.php

Preview full screen defaulting single page view

Hello All,
I like the full screen feature in OS Lion. This way i use Preview to read articles. When i open a doc, full screen mode gives two adjacent pages default view.
I want to open an article an display it default as single page continuous.
Is it possible ?
Regards

I don't know, since I rarely use it w/19" monitor, but you can file an enhancement report (or bug report) with Apple, via its Bug Reporter system. Join the Apple Developer Connection (ADC)—it's free and available for all Mac users and gets you a look at some development software. Since you already have an Apple username/ID, use that. Once a member, go to Apple BugReporter and file your bug report/enhancement request. You'll get a get a Bug (ER) ID number; thus, starting a dialog directly with engineering.

Single page view mode in Acrobat Reader on android

Is there a way for a pdf to dictate the view mode used in Acrobat Reader on a smart phone? By default I believe it is set to continuous however I would like it to automatically change to single page when my pdf is opened.

Mark -
You are correct.
In Acrobat Reader on my PC, I'm highlighting text and then adding a sticky-note comment to it.
So, if I just insert a sticky note comment without highlighting the associated text in the document, I can see the sticky note when I view the document on my android device - - just tested this and it works!
OK - I can live with that, but it would be good if the combination of highlighting AND sticky notes were visible when viewin the document in Android - the highlightimg feature makes it clearer to what piece of text the sticky bote relates to. Hope it can be incorporated in a furure release.
Thanks for clarifying the situation for me.

Dave,
I made the corrections as you recommended and solved the problem. I was able to export the PDF and view it in Acrobat as single pages just as you described.
Thank you for your help and reply.

Can i go straight to single row view of a report?

When I click on a link I would like to be able to go directly to a single row view on an interactive report - not to just select that row on the normal view. Anyone know how to do this?

Hi,
Actually you can go single row view of interactive report on page load.
http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=40323:48
And it is easy to do with dynamic action.
I did create Advanced dynamic action
Event "Page load"
Action "Execute javascript code"
Code gReport.controls.row('7369')-- this varies on your report . Just example for EMP table
Selection type "Region" and I did select region where is my IR
Instead hardcode primary key value to javascript, you can probably use item like
gReport.controls.row('&Px_MY_ITEM_FOR_PK')I can post how it can be done in Apex 3.2 if needed.
