Change the default magnification

1 In the Preferences dialog box under Categories, select Page Display.

2 Open the Zoom pop-up menu and choose a default magnification level.

Display off-screen areas of a magnified page

When you zoom in to a high magnification, you may be able to see only part of a page. You can shift the view to show
other areas of the page without changing the magnification level.

Do either of the following:

Use the vertical scroll bars to move up and down the pages or the horizontal scroll bars to move across the page.

Select the Hand tool in the Select & Zoom toolbar, or choose Tools > Select & Zoom > Hand Tool, and drag to move
the page, as if moving a piece of paper on a table.

Set the page layout and orientation

Changing the page layout is especially useful when you want to zoom out to get an overview of the document layout.
You can use the following page layouts when viewing PDF documents:

Single Page

Displays one page at a time, with no portion on other pages visible.

Single Page Continuous

Displays pages in a continuous vertical column that is one page wide.

Two-Up

Displays each two-page spread with no portion of other pages visible.

Two-Up Continuous

Displays facing pages side by side in a continuous vertical column.

If a document has more than two pages, you can ensure that the first page appears alone on the right side of the
document pane. Select either Two-Up or Two-Up Continuous. Also select View > Page Display > Show Cover Page

During Two-Up.
