Create page thumbnails
❖
Click the Pages button on the left.
Page thumbnails appear in the navigation pane. This process may require several seconds, particularly in larger
documents. The drawing of page thumbnails may pause if you interact with the application during this process.
Resize page thumbnails
❖
In the Pages panel, choose Reduce Page Thumbnails or Enlarge Page Thumbnails from the options menu
. Page
thumbnails revert to their default size if you close and reopen the PDF.
Define the tabbing order
In the Pages panel, you can set the order in which a user tabs through form fields, links, and comments for each page.
1 Click the Pages button on the left.
2 Select a page thumbnail, and choose Page Properties from the options menu
.
3 In the Page Properties dialog box, click Tab Order, and select the tab order:
Use Row Order
Moves through rows from left to right, or right to left for pages with a right-to-left binding.
Use Column Order
Moves through columns from left to right and from top to bottom, or right to left for pages with a
right-to-left binding.
Use Document Structure
Moves in the order specified by the authoring application.
Note: For structured documents—PDFs that were created from desktop publishing applications or that contain tags—it’s
best to select the Use Document Structure option to match the intention of the authoring application.
If the document was created in an earlier version of Acrobat, the tab order is Unspecified by default. With this setting,
form fields are tabbed through first, followed by links and then comments ordered by row.
About bookmarks
A bookmark is a type of link with representative text in the Bookmarks panel in the navigation pane. Each bookmark
goes to a different view or page in the document. Bookmarks are generated automatically during PDF creation from
the table-of-contents entries of documents created by most desktop publishing programs. These bookmarks are often
tagged and can be used to make edits in the PDF.
