Viewing

I just installed Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional on my computer. When viewing some PDFs, the image breaks up and displays the toolbar and desktop background as I scroll through the document. How  can this be stopped?

Re: Viewing

Not sure I know exactly if this gets it. If not, post another question.

If you're viewing PDFs in Acrobat 8 in a minimized view where the background desktop is visible, you can change the viewing on Windows only so Acrobat always opens in a maximized view. Open the Preferences (Ctrl + K) and click Documents in the left pane. Remove the checkmark for: "Show each document in its own window (requires restart)." Quit Acrobat and relaunch the program. All subsequent files will now open in a maximized view.

Mac users unfortunately don't have this preference command and windows open at the window size the same size as last viewed. If you're a Mac user and this is annoying, post a feature request on Adobe's Web site.

Re: Viewing

I tried your recommendation and Acrobat still does this annoying thing. Also, I noticed a small space when starting the application between the toolbar and the document viewing area. This sliver shows the blue top of the window. Can you please help me? Is this a memory problem? Do I need to reinstall? Please help.
