Read articles
In PDFs, articles are optional electronic threads that the PDF author may define within that PDF. Articles lead
readers through the PDF content, jumping over pages or areas of the page that are not included in the article, in the
same way that you might skim through a traditional newspaper or magazine, following one specific story and
ignoring the rest. When you read an article, the page view may zoom in or out so that the current part of the article
fills the screen.
