Re: Presets for Initial View?

Try this. Click File, Properties, Initial View and set the desired zoom level.

You could also insert a JavaScript in the Page Properties. Insert this code for the page propertie when the page opens.

this.zoom = 75;

Change the number to the desired zoom level.

Re: Presets for Initial View?

well... i want to set a bunch of stuff... show pages panel, set zoom to "fit in window," show file name.

i guess i really want a preset for "document properties" overall

You could use Batch Processing in Acrobat Professional - the OPEN OPTIONS command would have the initial view options embedded.

This could even be applied at a folder level - drop all PDFs into the folder, execute the Batch command and job done ...

Acrobat 3D will allow you to zoom to a specific location on a page.

You might try developing a plug-in using the Acrobat SDK as an alternative.

Re: Presets for Initial View?

Is there anyway either in Acrobat Pro or Designer to modify this.zoom = 75;
to zoom to a specific quadrant or the region where the button is? Thanks, Brennan.
