View bar controls
The View bar is located at the base of the program window, and has the following navigation and zoom controls:
-
Rotates page view left.
-
Rotates page view right.
-
Standard page navigation arrows, moving to the first page, previous page, next page or last page.
-
Numeric page number box.
-
Zoom out.
-
Zoom in.
-
Numeric zoom ratio box (
): Click the arrow to select zoom ratio from the list of presets, or edit the value directly.
The View bar also offers three most useful viewing choices that combine scrolling options with fit options. These tools appear to the right of the zoom controls:
-
Fit Page: Display one page at a time (Single Page) and fit each page into the Document panel, so all contents remain visible without scrolling. If the Document panel is resized, or you move to a different-sized page, the image is resized accordingly.
-
Fit Width: Display pages one below the other (Continuous) and fit the width of all pages into the Document panel, so contents remain visible without horizontal scrolling. If the Document panel is resized, the image is resized accordingly. The widest page in each document determines the magnification.
-
Full Screen: Display each page in the full screen area, which is typically selected for presentations. Use the bottom right toolbar to move to the next or previous page, or return from Full Screen view (also achieved by pressing Escape or Ctrl+L).
Document Assembly view
Use the
Document Assembly tool on the
Home tab of the ribbon to display more pages, making it easier to perform page operations or move, insert, extract and copy pages or selected objects or text blocks to other pages in the same or other documents. See
Document Assembly for details. Click the same tool again to exit Document Assembly mode and return to the previous viewing mode set under
.
