PRS-T1 PDF Zoom

Hi!
When I read PDFs where you can't or should not change the font size because of reflow problems and using the Panorama-Mode is still too small, you have to zoom in. When you turn the page now, the zoom window is at the same position on the next page as it has been on the page before, instead of being at the top of the next page. Is there a way or is it planed to be able to use the arrow keys to reasonably skim through a zoomed pdf?

Thank you for your post and welcome to the forum.
Yes, it will stay in the same position within the page, but I can understand this being an irritation to someone reading a document in the way you describe, having to go back up on every page - I have forwarded the scenario to the Sony engineering for possible resolution in a future update.

Safari 7 PDF Zoom Level

Since upgrading to Mavericks Safari no longer remembers my previous PDF zoom level. I am using Safari's build in PDF viewer, not Acrobat. Prior to Mavericks Safari would remember my last zoom level (I prefer Actual Size). Now PDF's always open in Automatically Resize mode and fill the width of the screen. I open a lot of PDF's in the browser and it is rather annoying to have to manually change the zoom level every time. Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix this? Thanks!

Moreover, automatically resize fits page to the width of window. This is the most stupid thing ever, considering my display is 1920*1080. It feels like every single letter is the same size as my eyeball.

PDF zoom article x resolution quality

Hi,
I have tried the new resource to apply zoom in articles with overlays, but my texts (with scrollable) are coming worst when I zoom in the page.
Is there any way to better the quality resolution to vector objetcs using PDF zoom features.
Regards

That is expected behavior. All content in the overlays gets rasterized.
This is still a major improvement, IMO, and we'll all have to be patient as Adobe continues to work to improve these tools and the output.

PDF Zooming issue

Despite the fact that I have created all articles in PDF,
that I have checked the box "PDF zooming" in the Viewer Builder
In the Developer Preview.ipa (loaded on my iPad), zooming works only on a few pages out of 85.
Where is the problem ?
Thank you

Ok now.
I think, I found the culprit.
After minimizing my test case to 1 article and an InDesign file with no contents, just a blank page, I found one difference between my problem file and my new files that work without problems (= zooming is enabled):
My problem file was created in InDesign CS5 v7.04 and then worked on in 7.5.5 v7.5.3.
After exporting to IDML from InDesign CS5.5, reopened and saved again as InDesign CS5.5 file the problem was gone.
Zooming was no problem any more!

Can you set PDF zoom level when exporting from ID?

I do many documents for proof and regardless of how the end user is going to view them, I like them to open as a full page ("Fit Page" zoom level) - I want the viewer to get the overall impact of the layout before they see just the top half or upper corner.
Right now, I export from ID and have to manually set the zoom level in Properties from within Acrobat Pro. Is there ANY way to set a default export zoom level to save this step, which I have to do many times on most days?

Only if you export using File > Export > Adobe PDF (Interactive). Not if you're using File > Export > Adobe PDF (Print),

Use external Javascript to control native PDF zoom

This is my first time posting and I am unsure if this is the right place to post.
I have an embedded pdf that I would like to turn off the toolbar on. The only downside is that I don't want to count on people knowing ways around not having the buttons. I already have a zoom in and zoom out button elsewhere on the page. See Image. The reason I would like to use the external buttons vs the ones on the pdf, is that I will also link to non-PDF images that I use the zoom buttons for. Is there any way to access the native adobe reader zoom features through external code?

If the PDF file is embedded in a frameset you can do this via Browser JS. There used to be an example in the Acrobat SDK so you might want to start there.
Here is a link to the area in the SDK that you want to use and the method I believe you would want to work with is "setZoom".

PDF zoom on opening

When I open PDF's they often open in a zoom mode can I turn this off so they open at 100%

You can set your preference under Preferences -> Page Display BUT the creator of the pdf can trump your settings if they want it to open in a certain way

Safari pdf zoom gesture fails

Hey,
Just a comment on features that stop working.
After 'some' time I find that the pinch gesture that zooms pdfs inside a safari window just stop working.
The only way to fix it I believe is a restart of safari.
That is all.
thx

TINY PDF Zoom Range?

Being a public transit user, I just loaded my Pre with some of the various PDF transit maps for the bay area. However, I can't get them to zoom in far enough to be of any use whatsoever. The PDF does zoom a little via both the pinch and double tap methods. But the biggest it zooms to is still way too tiny to see what bus routes go where. Am I doing something wrong, or is this another unfortunate and unexpected limitation of my Pre? :-(

Same problem here with a Pixi running 1.3.5.
I just loaded some 24" x 26" & 30"x 42" pdf blueprints into my Pixi and was unable to read the small text beacuse of the limited zoom. This is unfortunate beacuse it loads them up just fine and pretty fast too considering it is a 10 meg pdf binder.

PDF zoom in UIWebView

What a nightmare, I've got over 2 years of cocoa experience but the iPhone SDK is a nightmare. It's easy to come up quick with some results, but than to go all the way is a proper nightmare. It's WEEKS that I stuck with zooming either for PDFs or images. Let's start with the pdf, I've got a pdf that's loaded in a UIWebView thats loaded in a UIScrollView thats loaded in a UIViewController. Displays ok, it's already zoomed (why? where to set it? Where's the docs?), now when I zoom it doesn't redrawn to sharpen, it zooms to blurry oblivion. Here's my code:
scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
myWebView = [[DAUIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:[[UIScreen mainScreen] bounds]];
NSURL* urlLocation = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:theURL];
myWebView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
myWebView.autoresizingMask = ( UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight);
[myWebView loadRequest:[NSURLRequest requestWithURL:urlLocation]];
scrollView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit;
scrollView.autoresizingMask = ( UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleWidth | UIViewAutoresizingFlexibleHeight);
scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 2.0;
scrollView.minimumZoomScale = 1;
scrollView.clipsToBounds = YES;
scrollView.delegate = self;
[scrollView addSubview:myWebView];
DAUIViewController* viewController = [[DAUIViewController alloc]init];
[[viewController view]addSubview:scrollView];
[[self navigationController] pushViewController:viewController animated:YES];
- (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView {
return myWebView;
I've also tried with :
- (void)scrollViewDidEndZooming:(UIScrollView *)scrollView withView:(UIView *)view atScale:(float)scale{
[myWebView reload];

Well you cannot get everything that is shown there, as informed by Dave. But some part of it can be achieved by PDF Portfolios. There are some layouts available in Acrobat or you can also get some from internet. You can use this link to get more information about PDF Portfolios:

PDF zoom control

Safari (3.1.2) opens PDFs at 190% zoom.
is there a control to make it open them at 100% ?

Presumably, you would have to scale it down if it's too large, and that should set the default for opening other PDF files, too. But you should test that to be sure.

Pdf, Zoom and passwords

Hello, I use a MAC 10.6.8 and since I installed the last Firefox version (11.0), I face the following issues:
- I cannot open pdf files any longer through internet (after a Google search for instance)
- The "manual pad zoom" doesn't work (and it worked)
- If I log-in with a new Gmail account (I never used), I no longer get the question to have the password saved

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in permanent Private Browsing mode.

PDF zooming & quality

I have a problem, I'm not a programmer but I try to do some app for fun.
I try to create a pdf viewer, I create a UIView class like this:
[CODE]   - (id)initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame {
        self = [super initWithFrame:(CGRect)frame];
        if (self) {
            self.backgroundColor = [UIColor clearColor];
            NSString *pathToPdfDoc = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"myPDF" ofType:@"pdf"];
            NSURL *pdfUrl = [NSURL fileURLWithPath:pathToPdfDoc];
            document = CGPDFDocumentCreateWithURL((CFURLRef)pdfUrl);
            currentPage = 1;
        return self;
    -(void)drawRect:(CGRect)inRect{
        if(document) {
            CGPDFPageRef page = CGPDFDocumentGetPage(document, currentPage);
            CGContextRef ctx = UIGraphicsGetCurrentContext();
            CGContextSaveGState(ctx);
            CGContextTranslateCTM(ctx, 0.0, [self bounds].size.height);
            CGContextScaleCTM(ctx, 1.0, -1.0);
            CGContextConcatCTM(ctx, CGPDFPageGetDrawingTransform(page, kCGPDFCropBox, [self bounds], 0, true));
            CGContextDrawPDFPage(ctx, page);
            CGContextRestoreGState(ctx);
    -(void)increasePageNumber {
        size_t pageCount = CGPDFDocumentGetNumberOfPages(document);
        if (currentPage == pageCount) {
            // do nothing
        else {
            currentPage++;
            [self setNeedsDisplay];
    -(void)decreasePageNumber {
        if (currentPage == 1) {
            // do nothing
        else {
            currentPage--;
            [self setNeedsDisplay];
[/CODE]
now I try to add zoom but without luck, fro zoom I create a layer:
[CODE]
    -(void)viewDidLoad {
        CGRect frame;
        if (UI_USER_INTERFACE_IDIOM() == UIUserInterfaceIdiomPad) {
            frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 960, 1024);
        else{
            frame = CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 460);
        tiledLayer = [CATiledLayer layer];
        tiledLayer.delegate = self;
        tiledLayer.tileSize = CGSizeMake(1024, 1024);
        tiledLayer.levelsOfDetail = 200;
        tiledLayer.levelsOfDetailBias = 200;
        tiledLayer.frame = frame;
        myPDFView = [[viewPDF alloc] initWithFrame:frame];
        //[self.view addSubview:myPDFView];
        [myPDFView.layer addSublayer:tiledLayer];
        CGRect viewFrame = self.view.frame;
        viewFrame.origin = CGPointZero;
        scrollView = [[UIScrollView alloc] initWithFrame:viewFrame];
        scrollView.delegate = self;
        scrollView.contentSize = frame.size;
        scrollView.maximumZoomScale = 5;
        [scrollView addSubview:myPDFView];
        [self.view addSubview:scrollView];
    - (UIView *)viewForZoomingInScrollView:(UIScrollView *)scrollView
        return myPDFView;
    }[/CODE]
but when I zooming i lost quality...how can I adjust it?

Open the PDF file in Preview, located in the Applications folder. Drag the thumbnail onto the Keynote slide. If thumbnails are not showing, click the side panel options button directly underneath the red close button top right in Preview.

PDF zoom lock

Hello,
how can I lock the zoom percentage, so that everyone can see the document at the same percantage when they open it.
Thank You
Luka

You can't lock it, but you can set its initial value in: File - Document Properties - Initial View - Magnification.
