Restore view settings when reopening document

Hi
I have checked the 'restore view settings when reopening document' in the preferences as I was under the impression that this would restore the document to the last page I was reading when I closed the reader. However, it doesn't, it always opens the doc at the first page.
Has anyone else seen this issue? How do I fix it?
I am running Win 7 64-bit, I've tried running reader as administrator but that makes no difference.
Thanks
Matt

Hey fellas!!
               I noticed the same issue while reading a novel.So,posted a query and came across your disscussion.Some of my pdfs were doing fine but some were not.I compared the document properties of both the type.Limitations on a pdfs display depend on the producer.If you a viewing a pdf produced by adobe in Adobe reader then it'll work optimally.In case it's not working,then check out the producer and use a compatible reader.
e.g : My problematic pdf was created using Foxit .Fortunately I had the unused foxit software in my system for some time!I Installed it today and it worked like a charm.Easily available through google search and loads faster then adobe reader!
P.S.  Looks like our queries have been resolved.But I would love to know of a way to open such files in adobe reader.(Thogh I dont think adobe will take responsibility for some  me know alternative producer).So if you happen to find a resolution just let me know here : [email protected]

  • "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option not working with all documents

    Said option (found under Edit/Preferences, category Documents), which works like an automatic bookmark in that it takes you back to the same place you were at when you last closed a document, is very useful, but apparently doesn't work with *all* documents.
    - Does anyone know what determines whether a given document works with this option or not?
    - Is this by design or a bug? A matter of PDF format version?
    - Is there a way to work around the problem?
    I've compared two documents, only one of which works with the option, to determine what the relevant difference may be, and found two suspects (under File/Properties): the PDF version (1.5 in the document that works, 1.4 in the one that doesn't), and 'Fast Web View' ('yes' in the document that works, 'no' in the one that doesn't).
    Thanks,
    Michael

    This seems to be a problem with some PDF files.
    Suggested workaround: If the PDF you have allows "Save As", then try save-as to a new file. The "Restore last view settings when reopening documents" option should then work as expected (in the new file).

  • Can't retain viewing settings when itunes reopens

    I use my ipod with itunes on two computes, one Windows XP, one MAC 10.4. Whenever I listen to music from the ipod through itunes (the ipod is the DEVICE)I set the controls and view for how I want them: e.g. I want it to shuffle the songs and want the equilizer setting to appear on the columns, and want the songs arranged alphabetically. I save this setting, but whenever I close and reopen itunes it goes back to another setting. Can anything be done? (This didn't happen in earlier versions of itunes) Many thanks.

    Welcome to Discussions, mollyib
    (1) Unless you get better suggestions here and have compelling reason for not doing so,
    update to the latest version (10.6.4) using the Combo Updater as follows:
    Disconnect all your iPods and other AV peripherals and then restart your Mac.
    Then use your Mac's Disk Utility to repair permissions.
    Now download and install the Mac OS X v10.6.4 Update (Combo):
      http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1048
    Immediately after the restart that completes the update, repair permisssions again.
    Then test whether your problem persists.
    (2) If you still have problems, reinstall iTunes 10. Use Software > Update... or this weblink:
      http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Repair permissions when the update is finished. Then test again.
    (3) If your problem only occurs when you have iPod connected, see if anything here helps:

  • Saved PDF does not  restore data properly when reopened

    I have a simple PDF I created in Livecycle Designer where I fill in some input fields and save the PDF. The problem I am having is when I save the PDF, and then reopen it, the data in the input fields are no longer where I originally typed them in.
    The PDF is saved as a version 8 Dynamic PDF and the Form properties is set to 'Automatic' (that is, not manual). If anyone can help me, I would be so appreciative.
    My PDF can be downloaded at:
    https://share.acrobat.com/adc/document.do?docid=bcb8f652-f468-4c81-b221-65a5e397c89d

    I think I figured this out. The code to add subforms called sect is executing on the initialize event of the P1 subform. The initialize event is running twice (once on the server (pdf creation) and once on the client inside of acrobat when it is rendered. If you move that code to the Doc Ready event the form will display correctly. I put a textfield on the form this populated when the initialization script is run. This tells me how many times it runs.
    Now back to your original problem.
    If I run your script to populate the rooms and re-open it is getting messed up again because the Doc Ready event is running each time you open the form. Instead of trying to initialize the form programatically if you use the Initial count on the binding tab of the subform all of this initiazation problems go away.
    Are you intending on having multiple rooms subforms per section or will it always be one to one? if there is a one to one mapping change the checkbox on the binding tab that indicates that multiple subforms are available.

  • TOC format lost when reopening document

    I have just received a replacement Intel Core 2 Duo iMac for my previous Intel iMac. I firewired over all my files and programs to the new machine. I then tried to open a large document which had been created using my own templates on my previous iMac.
    On opening this file the placement of all the text boxes, graphics and pictures has been lost. On investigation I have discovered that the problem is to do with the loss of formatting in the TOC - the style for one of the TOC headings changes to a larger, embolden font, which knocks the TOC onto two pages, which then affects all the other pages. By the end of a 44 page document, it has increased the pagination to 50 pages. The non-text layer objects, as they are 'fixed on page' remain where they were originally, but their interaction with the text layer creates a complete mess. Reducing the TOC back down to one page does not help, as all the graphics then move up with the surrounding text instead of staying put.
    I have spent this afternoon reformatting the whole document from scratch. I then saved my changes, but on reopening as the TOC formatting has changed, then the document is in the same state as it was before.
    Although I have experienced this TOC problem before, it is only since I migrated to this iMac that it has had upset all the formatting of the document. Previously if I reduced the TOC back down to a single page, the text and graphics interacted correctly and there was no additional adjustments to be made.
    Is there any way that I can make the TOC stable so that it does not have such a detrimental affect on a large document?

    You're welcome.  Just to be clear -
    All links in a TEMPLATE file should be one of three kinds -
    1.  Relative to the template file, e.g.,
    <a href="../ (meaning that you must go up one level from the template folder
    to reach the root of the site, hence all other files, since none of them
    should be in the templates folder)
    2.  Relative to the site root, e.g.,
    <a href="/ (meaning that one would begin looking for the linked file at the
    root of the site and follow the pathing from that point)
    3.  Absolute, e.g.,
    <a href="http:// (meaning that the link is to a page external to the site).
    If you see any DOCUMENT RELATIVE LINKS that don't begin with "../" in a Template file, you can be sure that something is wrong.

  • How to get 100% view centered when opening document?

    I work with my documents at 100%. Whenever I open a document the pages are placed rather randomly on my screen... Is there a way to have the pages centered by default? I have to press cmd-alt-0 (to center the spread) and then cmd-1 (to g to 100%) everytime... There MUST be a way to have my documents centered AND at 100% at ONCE when I opened them... right?

    That's exactly what I did, in March already. Thanks for the tip anyway because I see I didn't post my solution yet, which might be handy for future use. I did add (on my Mac) the command-shift-A shorcut to it (as the first in the row) to deselect everything: if you don't do that and you have something selected, an imagie or text, it will center that selected image or text onscreen, which is not what I want. So my script (I actually use Keyboard Maestro) looks like this:
    Shift-Command-A
    Option-Command-0
    Command-1
    And I actually assigned Command-1 to the 'script' because it's such an easy key combination. And when I want something 100% onscreen i almost always want the document to be centered too. Sometimes it's a pity my 'script' also deselects everything, but I've learned to live with it.
    I already made a habit of pressing Command-1 as soon as I open a document...

  • How can I change the viewer settings when I publish an Aperture gallery to my iCloud Photostream ?.

    I used to rely on MobileMe to share photo galleries with clients and it worked great, but now with the iCloud, I can create a public album on my iCloud - PhotoStream (that does not need an Apple ID to access) but it seems to be limited to just an asymetrical mosaic viewer interface that does not offer any titles or original exposure titles. One,- it looks more like an artsy vacation photo gallery than something a client could easily compare similar photos and Two , there are no identifiers that the client could use to relate his or her photo choice. It would also be helpful to add notes which I beleive is only possible on a non-public album. I would appreciate any tips,  thank you

    Don't know about Aperture, but...
    If you're adding the photos from iPhoto on your Mac put the photos in an album and arrange them in the order you want. Use the Photos ➙ Batch Change ➙ Set: Date menu option to give all of the photos the same date but with a 1 minute interval.
    Add them to the Photo Stream and they should remain in the order you want.

  • Restore Last View Settings and Max Window

    When I check "Restore last view settings when reopening documents", and if the window was maximized before it was last closed, the window will start at a place slightly below the top bar (where you see "file", "edit" etc.), leaving a gap between the top bar and the window.
    However, if I turn on Dock hiding, this problem goes away. But I do not want to turn on Dock hiding.
    Are there any way I can solve this problem? Thank you!
    (I hope I am posting my question in the right place.)

    I am using Mac 10.9, by the way.

  • Initial View set in PDF Document not working.

    I have a PDF document w/Initial View in the Document Properties set to Navigation tab: 'Bookmarks panel and Page', and Open to page '1''.  However, when I send this document out, the Initial View settings do not happen (The PDF opens to the page last accessed before the document was sent and the navigation pane does not display).  Help - what am I missing or doing wrong when trying to distribute PDF?
    I am using Acrobat X Pro.

    It might be the settings in Acrobat that is causing the problem. Edit – Preferences…, under Categories select Documents. Uncheck Restore last view settings when reopening documents.

  • Acrobat 7 Pro, Script to Automate "Initial View" Settings

    Can you create an Applescript that let's you batch define Acrobat's 'Initial View' settings under the Document Properties of an existing PDF?
    I am not familiar with scripting language and enable the UI feature of Script Editor, but it didn't seem to record my actions. Photoshop's Actions don't allow me to define these specific settings.
