Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional - Manual (Page 479)

Defining the initial view as Full Screen mode
To use the Full Screen mode, you need to define how the document opens. These settings
are made in the Document Properties dialog box and are specific to the document.
The settings that control how the user navigates through the document or whether the
view moves from page to page automatically are set in the Full Screen preferences. The
Full Screen preferences are specific to a system. If you set up your presentation on a
system you control, you control these preferences. (See
Full Screen preferences .)
To have a document open in Full Screen mode:
1. Choose File > Document Properties.
2. In the Document Properties dialog box, select Initial View.
3. For Document Options, do the following:
●
Set Open To Page Number to 1 to start the presentation at the first page.
●
Choose Page Only from the Show menu.
●
Choose Single Page from the Page Layout menu.
4. For Window Options, select Open In Full Screen Mode to open the document without the
menu bar, toolbar, or window controls displayed. Click OK. (You have to save and reopen
the file to see the effects.)
Note: Users can exit Full Screen mode by pressing Esc if their preferences are set this
way. However, in Full Screen mode, users cannot apply commands and select tools unless
they know the keyboard shortcuts. You may want to set up page actions in the document
to provide this functionality. (See
Using actions for special effects .) You may also want to
set up buttons in the document to provide this functionality. (See Creating buttons .)
For additional information on setting the initial view, see Initial View options for
document properties .
5. Add page transitions for selected pages or the entire document. (See Adding page
transitions .)
Note: Acrobat supports page transitions and bullet fly-ins in PowerPoint.
