Full Screen but reduced image - is it possibe?

Question

Mac G5 Tower Panther OS. When making a PDF presentation to a client (an A4 brochure for example) I would like to use the Full Screen mode using my remote to change pages and make a smooth impression. The problem is on my Apple 20' Cinema display the A4 design fills the screen when I want to show it at 100% size only (210 x 297mm). I can do this easily in Acrobat normal mode but can find no way to make this so with Full Screen mode. The screen resolution is 1680x1050 and I am reluctant to even temporarily change it because it knocks other stuff off kilter.

Answer 1

If you're doing the original in a page layout program, it shouldn't be too hard. Figure out what percentage your screen needs to display at 100 percent of original size (my 24" Cinema at 1960x1200 display needs an enlargement of about 136% to display at actual size).
Make a new document of size 1680 points by 1050 points. Put in an RGB black frame at full document size. Take your original layout and write it to an RGB PDF (you may need to add white backgrounds to some pages). Place the PDFs back in your new layout, scaling them to the percentage needed for your display to show actual size. Then write a PDF of your new file.
