Viewing two pages on 23" display?

I cannot figure out how to see two pages next to one another
on a 23" Cinema display. I have zoomed out and enlarged the Pages window to fill the screen, but still get only one page
on the left side of the screen.
If someone has a suggestion I'd appreciate hearing. Thanks.

Yes, Peggy. It's nice to have the extra room for the inspector.
With Pages I miss the ability that Word gives me to have a legible overview of about 6 pages. On really long documents, I like being able to view an editable layout of a large chunk of pages (not just a strip of page thumbnails down the side).
A 23" display is perfect for viewing 10 or 24 or more pages to see the flow of chapters. This bird's-eye view really helps me as a writer. I can do it in Word, but not Pages. Naturally I don't want to do all my writing with things zoomed that small, but it's indispensable for viewing.
Analogy: In astronomy, I prefer binoculars to a telescope because they show a quicker overview of the sky, with a lot in the field of view. A telescope is like looking through a drinking straw and it's harder to find objects.
I guess I'm a right-brained Mac user who wishes he could see a multiple page overview. I would think that would also be really useful for scanning the layout of multi-page newsletters and things from the other Pages templates.

View two pages of Document

Can you view two pages of a document in Pages 5 as you could with the two up feature in the older version of pages?

You should check out Lucidpress (www.lucidpress.com). They have built a great cloud-based layout tool that has facing pages option in the document panel on the right.

Where did "View Two Pages" go?

The previous version of Pages supported the feature to view two pages. Now the only options are to Zoom, Fit Width, and Fit Page.
With larger monitors becoming common I don't understand why they would remove such a standard feature.
Does anyone know where this feature has gone? Any way to bring it back that does not involve reverting to the past version?

If you had Pages ’08 or ’09 installed on your machine prior to upgrading downgrading to Pages v5 (or later), then the old iWork applications were moved into /Applications/iWork 'YY, still work nicely on Yosemite, and boast over 100 features/functionality not present in Pages v5.5.1.
Among the lost features in Pages v5 was the ability to view two pages/facing pages functionality.

Is it possible to ignore the cover page of a document when viewing two pages at a time.

when viewing a document with two pages up at a time, I want to ignore the very first page/cover page in the document so that all subsequent pages line up correctly. I can't find how to do this, is it possible. I cannot extract or delete the first page b/c the document is protected. I don't want to modify the document in any way. This document is a catalog that has information spread across two pages. So, when the cover page is included in the two page scroll viewing option, all the corresponding pages are offset by one page. I want the cover page to be at the top, by itself and the rest of the pages to show side by side.

How can I view two pages side by side in the new Pages?

I can not find the feature to allow me to do this (which was available in the old version). This is really causing problems with some of my documents that have been created to be viewed this way. Any help would be great!

I am a loyal Apple user because Apple form always follows function. Deleting this feature from Pages was a stupid decision. Amateurish, really. Makes me question the new design team's competence.
One of the key principals in good user experience design is providing value - simple, clean functionality that users find useful. Side-by-side edititng is a great example. Yes, the document is stored internally as a linear stream, but from the user's point of view the presentation should be as a reader sees it. I don't know why it was removed, but I suspect it was either to conform with the internal form of the data, or to the least-common-denominator presentation device, or both.
I bought a Thunderbolt display so that I could edit documents 2 pages at a time. My intended audience sees the document this way, and so I would like to write it this way. But I can't with the new Pages.
Apple, please restore the side-by-side view in Pages. I have work to do. (And while you are at it, fix the EndNote plug-in.)

View two pages option is greyed out

MacBookPro Retina 10.9.5 > iBook app > for no known reason, halfway through reading a book > View - the two page option is greyed out and I can find no way to revert from the one page view.
Help please

Ah! I did open it at one stage but more out of curiosity than anything else. At some stage I added a page number and it was some time after that when the app went from double to singe page mode.
I was not able to close the Notes panel, so quit iBooks, restarted the computer, but still only one page and the Notes panel was, and is still open - I can find no way to close it.
Thanks for your reply.

Is there a way I can view two pages at once on Adobe for Windows 8 Metro?

I'm not talking about the one document. I'm talking about multiple documents. Say I need to view two documents at once, side-by-side while I study (one is a formula sheet and the other is a question sheet).

No. Adobe Reader Touch is a Windows Store app with "modern" UI. None of Windows Store apps with "modern" UI can open two windows side-by-side. That's the Windows 8/RT application design decision that Microsoft has made.
If you want multiple documents/windows for the same app, your only choice is to use a desktop app (e.g. Adobe Reader XI) in the Windows 8 desktop environment.

Viewing PDF's in Safari 3 w/ "2 Pages" Enabled - Cover Displays Incorrectly

When viewing PDF's in Safari 3 with "Two Pages" view enabled, pages 1 and 2 are displayed on the same spread. 3 and 4 are together and so on. Normally, when viewing two pages at a time, I'm expecting the front and back covers to appear seperately from the spreads. 2 and 3 are displayed together and so on (the assumption being that the PDF is based on a book-style layout).
Preview displays PDF's the "correct" way, and Safari shows them "incorrectly", yet I can't find a relevant option in either application.
In Acrobat, the equivalent option is View -> Page Display -> Show Cover Page During Two-Up.
Any ideas?

the application is safari. - in this case is it safari thats displaying the PDF or a plug in. at this point i dont have any 3rd party PDF plug ins.
the link is on a website, i have not downloaded the PDF. When I click on the link, another safai window opens and it displays the PDF. I close the window, and click on the same link. When that happens, the gibberish appears.
....at this point...im maybe thinking that its a problem with the web server? This doesnt happen all the time.
Thanks so much for you interest in my problem. =)

Have a gap in detail of first page and not display group footer on each pag

Please help me about Memo field in SubReport in CrystalReportXI. I have a SubReport that need to display pageheader, detail, page footer, and in detail of subreport contains memo field and set the property of this text box to "Can Grow" = Yes .However, CrystalReportX does not support to display pageheader, pagefooter in SubReport. So. I have created a formular FakePageHeader that has code as
"WhileReadingRecords;
true"
and group in this field and checked option repeat group header on each page and right click Section Expert->check print at Bottom of page for Group Footer.
This problem is when I preview Subreport. It display text in group header and a gap in detail of first page and view next page, the subreport display right data of memo field. But the report still not display group footer on each page.
How do I can remove a gap in first page and display group footer on each page?
Thanks

in subreport in format for the memo field uncheck keep object together.
You can not force group footers to repeat on each page.
I have not tried this but you might be able to capture the data you want to show in SR page footer and display in main report page footer, using shared variables.

How can I view double page spreads in pages? (iCloud pages).

The defalt for iCloud pages Is just page after page when you scroll down. Is there a way to view two pages side by side? It is really hard to alline things when they are not side by side. -- and no. making a new landscape document does not count.

Anne,
There are many, four I believe, ways to go about this. You could:
1. Open Pages and File > Open > browse to your document > Click Open.
2. With Pages running, Drag the document file to the Pages icon on the Dock
3. Control-Click the document file and select Open With > choose Pages.
4. Control-Click the document file and select Get Info. Choose Open With, choose Pages, Click Change All. Now any double-click on this document type will cause it to open in Pages. (I think this is the solution you are looking for, but I couldn't resist teasing you with the others.)

How can I make some pages in a PDF display in single-page view and others in two-page (facing) view?

Exactly as it says on the tin. I am looking to save a PDF magazine/book layout in such a way so that when opened, only the front and back covers open to the viewer in single-page mode, and the rest of the pages in two-page facing mode, without re-printing the in-between pages in booklet format and re-inserting them into a new PDF (with the front and back covers left separate and untouched, and included as single portrait-orientation pages). This is so that individual pages can still be printed (on a physical printer, not a "virtual" one like a PDF driver), as-is without having the page next to it included, or the printouts always requiring landscape orientation (resulting with two "pages" from the PDF showing up on one sheet of paper).
So when the PDF is opened, I want just the front and back cover to be auto-viewed by themselves, and the content (the "meat" of the document) viewed side-by-side, as though one were actually reading a "book" -- but without actually re-doing the content pages to be "fused" side-by-side. Thus creating the "illusion" that they are, in fact, in booklet form. Is this possible, to have different page-display settings for different pages/page ranges in a single PDF? If so, how is this done? If not, what would be my best course of action otherwise to achieve this "virtual" book layout, while still retaining the "physical" structure of the document and allowing individual pages to be printed by themselves rather than "fused" together?

The best you can do practicably is the 'two up with cover page' view mode. The first page will appear singly but not centered, and to get the last page to behave it would have to be a folio sheet.
It's theoretically possible to use JavaScript to reset the view mode as each page is changed, but it makes for a nightmare of usability (what if someone on a smaller display wants to use 'fit to width'? Not an option if JS keeps overruling it). Anything involving JS won't work on non-Adobe software or mobile devices.
Not a programmer by any means, so I won't be using JavaScript because I wouldn't know where to begin. I was thinking more in terms of an option I could adjust in the menus or dialogues.

How do i change the display in ADE to a single page view instead of two pages side by side? I find it distracting and prefer to look at one page at a time.

How do i change the display in ADE to a single page view instead of two pages side by side? I find it distracting and prefer to look at one page at a time.

You can increase the font size and automatically page view changes. Go to menubar; Reading -> PDF View or Epub Text Size (depending upon the ebook) and increase the size.

On viewing the page source of the page, it is displaying two title tags.

Two title tags are displayed on view source of the page.
One title tag is explicitly mentioned, but i do not want the second tag to be displayed.
Please suggest some solution.

Yes, by using JavaScript to create a new page by spawning a template page. The downside is that is will only work with Reader 11 (and Acrobat) and not previous versions of Reader. It also won't work if you need to Reader-enable the document so that pre-11 versions of Reader can save the filled-in form. If these limitations are not a problem and you need more help, post again.

How to display booklets with inside pages in two-page view?

Okay, I have a newsletter or other booklet-style document that I'd like to have appear with the inside pages in the two-page view. How do I accomplish this in Adobe Reader X?
Thanks

Hai,
When ever a page break oocurs top of page will trigger.
To achieve two top of pages follow the below logic:
<b>DATA:
W_FLAG TYPE I VALUE 0.
TOP-OF-PAGE.
IF W_FLAG EQ 0.
   WRITE ITAB 1 HEADER.
    W_FLAG = 1.
ELSE.
   WRITE ITAB 2 HEADER.
    W_FLAG = 0.
ENDIF.</b>
It is better to change W_FLAG = 1 WHEN itab1 contents are over.
and similarly to 1 when ITAB2 are over.
NEW-PAGE OPTIONS.
Hope you got it.
<b>Reward points if it helps you.</b>
Regds,

In two page view preview shows the first page on its own

In two page view preview shows the first page on its own. I have recently downloaded an ebook which has image based tutorials and the pages are in such a way that pages 3 and 4 should be seen next to each other. Preview seems to want to have pages 1 on its own therefore making this rather difficult. Any help on resolving this issue would be appreciated.

Try selecting the first page, and then from the "Edit" menu select "insert blank page". This should put a blank page at the beginning of the document, shifting all pages down one and putting them in the order you want for your display.
