Double page view broken in acroread 8

If choosing the double page view (side by side view) in former versions of Acrobat Reader, it started the first page on the right side and showed two pages on subsequent pages. This corresponded to the typical case in books where the odd page is always on the right side.
In Acrobat Reader 8, this useful feature has been lost. Now, the odd page is on the left and the even page on the right. This does not correspond to my expectations. Is there a way to tell Acroread to open odd pages on the right side?
If not, please change the behaviour of acroread to the way it did until version 7.

> In Acrobat Reader 8, this useful feature has been lost.
No, the feature is available:
View > Page Display > Show Cover Page During Two-Up

How do I get double-pages view in Pages 5.0

This CRUCIAL function somehow vanished, amongst other ones. How do i reenable double pages view in the latest version of pages 5.0?

>Sure there is. You can't do it in ios, so they don't want you to be able to do it on mac
Guess what, I cant take a phonecall with my mac either. According to your logic, the next update should remove the phone function from the iphone so things are unified.

Double page view issue

Hi,
although it looks like a minor issue I wasn't able to resolve it and therefore request your help.
When viewing a multi page document (e.g. scanned book or brochure) in double page view mode (2 pages on the screen located besides each other), Adobe Reader shows the first and second page at once, then the third and fourth and so on. Referring to a printed document, it should be instead: page 1, page 2 + 3, page 4 + 5 and so on, since page 1 is the cover and the first double page to view is 2+3 when you open the book. How can this be achieved? I did not find an option to toggle this behavior.
Oddly enough, Acrobat 7 does exactly what I want: Show page 1 on the right side, continue with 2+3, 4+5 and so on, finishing with the last page on the left side. Haw can this be different from Adobe Reader?
If yopu have an idea how to manage Acrobat Reader to do the exact same thing, I'd be glad to hear about it.
Thanks for your help,

In Acrobat X Pro, I encounter the same problem. With no document opened, the preferred way to display is set to 'facing pages with cover', but every document opened for the first time, shows two first pages at once, even pages at the right. How do I get rid of the wrong preferences?
NB. I did not have this problem in earler versions of Acrobat. And some of my collegues (with same configurations and CS5) do not have this problem even: with them the preferred option (given in with no document opened) is executed when opening a document.

HT4059 How to switch my book view to double page on Mac OS iBooks?

Hi I have this problem on my Mac (10.9.1) that when I first open an ePub format file in iBooks, it is originally double page viewed.
However, whenever I accidently click "show notes panel" and cloese it I can't swicth it back to double page view.
I tried command+2 but it didn't work.
This happened to all the books I tried in iBooks so I supposed it's not the problem of the file...
Does anyone know how to change it back to a 2 page view? Thanks

Is the screen wide enough e.g. have you tried dragging the side of the screen so that it's wider, or changed the font size to a smaller size ?

Hi I'm running Addressbook and cannot clear previous entry easily when searching my data base of around 5,000 contacts.
I prefer to view in All contacts on a double page spread with details on the right page. Searching doesn't seem to work correctly in this view.
It's always the second search that is problematic.
I've tried typing over and all it seems to do is confine the search to the the entries that have come up for the previous search.
I've tried to use the x to clear the previous entry and then type the next search, same problem. The only way seems to be to move from "All Contacts" to "Groups". Then the searched name appears and I can return to All Contacts to see full details.
Surely three key press' are not the way it's supposed to work?

While viewing a page I suden get "Oops! This page appears broken. DNS Error - Server cannot be found." However I can back arrow to the page

I just upgrade to versions 18.0.1. I am suing Window 7 64 bit.
Now I while I am viewing a page I suddenly receive the error massage "Oops! This page appears broken. DNS Error - Server cannot be found."
I can use the back arrow key to bring the paper back.
If I have several tabs open, I can watch one tab after another change from the page name, It doesn't seem to matter who page it is, Yahoo, Washington Post, NBCNews,

I am not a techie. I keep 15-20 to tabs open at a time for reference while working. When I upgraded to this version, all my tabs were closed and my history was erased. I still have not recovered from that loss. I do not want to have this repeated!
If I was using pdfforge extension (what ever that is) before the upgrade, why is it venomous now?
Besides this issue, since upgrading I suddenly starting having the audio from commercials being played from tabs that are not active (open). I now have to leave my audio muted.
I expected assistance from Firefox not some unknown individual ( iamjayakumars) who for all I know is a troll trying to get me to do something to expose my computer to attack.
I allowed Firefox to collect data they needed from my computer when I submitted the question.
Fix the bug in your program! I have used Firefox since it came out. I am within a hairs width of switching browser. The only thing holding me with Firefox is my bookmarks. If I figure out how to export them, I am gone.
FIX YOUR BROWSER!!!

HT1040 I am just about to order a 92 page book in Aperture and have previewed the order and found that in the PFD file I get all the pages are now different. Double page spreads are now on 2 different pages when viewed in 2 up continuous mode in Adobe Rea

I am just about to order quite an expensive 92 page large size book in Aperture & have used the Preview button and on viewing the book in the PDF using the 2 up continuous viewing mode I find that the page arrangement is all wrong with double page spreads now on separate pages and all my carefully designed pages in the wrong places. Will the book actually get printed like this? Regards,Keith

How did you create the preview of the book? It will look exactly like shown, when you press "Buy Book", then "Preview Book". This will open the Preview of you book in the "Preview" application. Set this to "Two-page mode". Then you should be able to see your double page spreads correctly, like here:

Viewing double-page spreads (two pages side by side)

I'm using Adobe Reader 8.1. How do I read two pages side by side? A lot of documents/magazines publish double-page spreads, and it's very frustrating trying to read these in single-page format.
I'm using a very hi-res WUXGA screen (148dpi), so it's perfectly possible for me to read full pages side by side in full-page view. But Reader won't let me. Very frustrating. Am I missing something?
I seem to recall doing this with earlier versions of Reader, a year or two back - if so, the feature's either disappeared or very hard to find. Very frustrating.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks!
Good lord, I really had spent a lot of time looking (including browsing FAQs and the full online knowledgebase, and completely overlooked that.
I don't think it was stupidity on my part. I think it needs adding to the help files.
I'm used to referring to it as 'DPS' or 'double page spread', which doesn't feature in Help search, and nothing came of a search for phrases like "two pages" either. I figured it would be in 'Zoom'.

How do export a double page spread photo to epub and fill an ipad screen?

I'm completely new to indesign. I'm using XP and Indesign CS6. I'm testing my epub on the new IPad 3.
I've published numerous books in print form with major publishing house in the US. I need to quickly get a copy of the book in epub format for publication on the ipads. Maybe later for the nook, etc. Eventually I will want to design new ebooks from scratch.
We are scanning the book spreads [photos and text together a double page spread] and want to show those spreads on the ipad as a single horizontal image with no page gutter. We've placed those jpg spreads in indesign as a double page spread. When we publish to epub it does not show as a double page spread. It only shows up as a horizontal image on either the left or right side of a vertical book [gutter layout] view on the ipad. It never spreads out to fill the entire ipad screen. What simple thing are we missing?
Thanks so much
Dwight

"The" iPad does not exist as a target, so I'm assuming you mean you export to a regular ePub and are viewing it using iBooks.
iBooks is page-agnostic. ePubs do not support the notion of "left-right" pages. In fact, iBooks is the only ePub viewer I am aware of that even tries to show "two" pages at a time.
Re-design your document so each image appears on its own page.

JSF Design view broken, showing tags as blocks instead of preview

I'm using jDev Build JDEVADF_11.1.2.3.0_GENERIC_120914.0223.6276.1
but this has happened to me several times before with previous versions of jDev.
All of the sudden after restarting jDev the design view for all my jsf pages look broken, showing only tag blocks, and not the design view it was showing previously. Why is this? what happened?
The only fix I found on this forum was to remove the system directory (should be somewhere like: C:\Documents and Settings\yourUser\Application Data\JDeveloper\system11.1.1.3.37.56.60 ) and let jDev create a new one. But then I have to reconfigure everything again, which can be frustrating.
Can anyone explain what's going on here, and if there's a better way to fix my jDev when this happens?

Placing double pages one below the other

Does anyone know if it is possible to place double pages one below the other instead of side by side? If it is, please be so kind and describe how it´s done. If not let me know for it´s a very relevant question for me concerning workflow.
Thanx

>How did you do your annual calendar before you worked in InDesign?
We did our first one in Freehand, which allows you to arrange the pages any way you want, which is where I got the idea that ID should. The only reason we switched from Freehand to ID for our calendars was because it was easier to work with the text ... and then Freehand got bought out by ID and dropped. (And no I'm not saying that Freehand was the best application for this type of project--only that it had the ability to do vertical spreads.) The thing is, the option exists in Freehand, Adobe now has Freehand, so it seems like they could look at how Freehand did it and see if it could be implemented in ID--and maybe they have. If we don't keep asking, then they won't, right? All we're doing is asking.
We currently do the layout on one page the size of the calendar spread and break it up using PDFs placed on ID pages. That works for calendars (even if it is time consuming), however, I've done several books that were not calendars that use a horizontal binding and needed page numbers on the top and bottoms of the spread, and I had implement all kinds of masters to do what is automatic on the horizontal spreads. It doesn't make sense to me that an application that is designed for book layout can't do both kinds of spreads.
But I repeat what I said before in my first post. I think rotating views would solve that problem (along with others) quite nicely. You could then rotate all your text boxes and work like you were on a vertical spread and still have all the features of a horizontal one.
>I always get my fists up when I read people saying "Why can't InDesign do this?". It always feels as if they are saying "Why can't ID do this? It was so easy to do in Quark, PageMaker, FrameMaker, or even Word!"
No need to get your fists up. I love ID. I've been using it since version 1.0 when everyone else was still laughing at it. (I dropped PageMaker gratefully and without looking back). I wouldn't use anything else (including Freehand). But to say ID doesn't have room for improvement is to say it is perfect and it isn't. Why does it bother you so when other designers have features that are so intrinsic to their workflow that they just can't understand why everyone else isn't upset it isn't in ID? I admire your skill with ID and your ability to help everyone, but I really wish you wouldn't be so quick to jump down people's throats when they miss features that would make their lives much easier. Maybe you don't understand their frustration, but that doesn't make them wrong. When I first had to do a vertical spread, I was really flabbergasted that I couldn't switch the spreads around, I missed the feature because I needed it. Isn't that enough for you?

Exporting PDFs and maintaining double-page spread format

I've combined a large number of individual PDF files (created in InDesign) for print. Now I would like to create an iBook with these pages. I've created a PDF file for use on an iPad but how do I maintain the double-page spread format? I can view this successfully in Acrobat but not in iBooks. Can anyone help?
Thanks
F

This is best addressed in either an iBooks forum on the Apple website or InDesign. For use in iBooks you might be best off using a format other than pdf.

InD double page layout presentation in Creative Cloud?

Hi,
stored my InD document for a brochure in the CC. There i can browse only through single pages, but i want to see the complete double page layout. Is it possible to change this? Can not find it ...
Thanks! Boris

I don't think so. I think you need to open the InDesign file to preview spreads. Or make a PDF of it with Spreads selected, and view the PDF file.

Pagination with Double page spreads?

Having a little issue; Normally I do my page numbers manually (insane I Know, but I usually do very small books so it doesn't matter too much), but I am working on a very large book and doing it manually is out of the question.
I am inserting a Special Character textbox,to start from page 3, however , I have designed each A4 page in InDesign to be 2 pages in the book format (so A5 book pages). I want InDesign to realise this but I am having trouble. I have tried pasting my automatic pagination textbox (Even trying to set it to 'Display previous page') but it is not having it.
How Can I work around this. I've attached an image incase this doesn't make sense (which i'm sure it won't! )
Here's a link to the pic: You can see that my A4 InDesign Pages have 2 A5 pages fitted on, but InDesign sees it as the same page # (understandably). I need one of them to display 'PREVIOUS PAGE'. So I can paste in place on every page.

Hope you can help, thanks!

You would work around this by not doing that way.
InDesign doesn't work for this; the usual way to get "double page spreads" is to make single pages. That's why there is a checkbox "Facing Pages" in the New Document dialog -- pages are viewed as they will be printed, and still they are separate.
Unfortunately, your current way of working is so off course that there is no easy way to "convert" your spreads to regular pages. It might be less work to bite the bullet, accept the consequences of Not Looking Ahead, and number (once again) by hand.
