Pdf file, How do I fit by width in landscap mode on iphone?

In landscap mode, pdf file show full page and I have to zoom in everytime. I want to fit width when put in landscap. How to??

Doesn't seem to be a setting for this in iBooks 3.1 (tested on both an iPad [3rd Gen] and iPhone 4S both w/iOS 6.1.3)
However, a little experimentation reveals -- it depends on the PDF.
If the PDF is text (I used 'PowerShell in Action' - a programming book) you can use the same method as Mobile Safari - Double tap in the text and that section expands to fit the width of the screen in landscape or portrait. Centered on where you tapped in the text.
If the PDF is a single image - like a PDF comic book (I used a volume of 'Girl Genius'), it appears that the double tap to expand doesn't work. If the PDF is already full width, a double tap does appear to shrink it back to full page view.
Unfortunately, this seems to be on a per page basis. When you flip to the next/previous page it goes back to full page view.
Note: There are other PDF viewer apps/apps with PDF viewers built in that behave differently, more like you are looking for. Some are even free.
Hopefully Apple will improve this in the next version.
And, of course, the obligatory disclaimer -  YMMV with different PDFs, versions of iBooks, and iOS and this is just a random comment on the Internet. Not warrantee expressed or implied. And my employer (which is not  Apple) has no idea I just wrote this.

  • Merging word document with pdf file how do you renumber pages?

    After merging a word document with pdf file, how do you renumber pages?  The pdf has more pages than the word document.  I first converted the word document to a pdf, using Acrobat Standard 9.

    Hi Petek ,
    After you merge the files or combine files ,click on the Page Thumbnails panel on the left hand side.
    In the Page Thumbnail panel ,right click and you will get a drop down list .Select the option "Number Pages".
    You will see a dialog box with several options .You can renumber the pages from there as per your requirement.

    I’m using version 11.0.10. So where the Menu resides in a folder ready to be burnt on to a CD, that same folder is where the links point to.

  • Acrobat Pro 9.4.5 crashes when I open PDF file - How can I fix it ??

    Dear Fellow Mac Users,
    I have a MacPro4,1 with a 2 X 2.226 Ghz Quad-Core Intel Xeon
    Processor and 16 GB 1066 MHz DDR3 Memory. On my MacPro4,1,
    I have Adobe CS4 Suite installed. I now have Adobe Acrobat
    version 9.4.5.
    Whenever I open a PDF file, reguardles of size, Adobe Acrobat
    version 9.4.5 freezes. This happens even with files less than
    1 MB and with any other Acrobat software open. This happens
    even if Adobe Acrobat is the only software that is open.
    Any ideas about how I can fix this problem?
    Best Wishes,
    Paul

    I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling Acrobat Pro, then reapply the updates to 9.4.5.

  • HT1040 I have an iphoto book saved as a PDF file, how do I order the book from the PDF file?

    AGGHHHH! I have just finished hours of work, making an album on iphoto. I finally finished placing about the 300th photo, all cropped, edited, etc etc. I wanted to check that all the photos were in, so I hit the "clear placed photos" button, thinking it would just leave me with any I'd missed, & instead it wiped my whole album!! Is there any way I can restore it? If not I did save it as a pdf file. How to I purchase the book using the pdf file?

    The way is to restore it is to restore your backup from before this happened - that is why you must have backups
    As to purchasing form a PDF - not from Apple - check for web wervices who claim to be able to  - google brings up sites like PrestoPrint - not recommended - not tested - simply found

  • Pdf files - how can I add text to a pdf file

    I want to allow my Google group to fill info out on a Numbers form, but the Mac users evidently don't have Numbers. I sent it to them as a pdf file, but text can't be added to it as a pdf file. There has got to be a way. I tried using Tools - annotate - add text, but that didn't really work. Any help?

    Because you are recent switcher to OS X I'd strongly recommend bookmarking and using these links, they're designed for those that have recent made the switch and for this considing it.

    Go here and download a version of Adobe Reader. Once it is installed, when you open a pdf file with it, you should be able to print to an installed printer.

  • How to auto fit column width?

    Hi experts,
      When I design a input schedule, I find a problem, some columns can auto fit column width when I input numerics, some columns can not! how can I fix my input schedule and let all column can auto fit column width?
    best regard

    Evans,
          If you are using standard template and which is not working for 2 data ranges.
          I think you can customize using VBA Macros. It is possible using Macros. I'm not sure is it BUG from SAP.
         Try to put VBA code in AFTER_REFRESH i guess.
          You can VBA Macro code mention below.
          for Column D: Columns("D:D").EntireColumn.AutoFit
          For all Columns: Cells.EntireColumn.AutoFit
          For Only Data Ranges: Determine columns from data range using VBA code and use VBA code given for Column .
    Thanks,
    Ben.
