Options
Defines preferences for opening Acrobat, Web browsers, and other application
preferences.The preference options are the following:
Display PDF in Browser displays any PDFs opened from the Web in your default browser.
If this option is not selected, the PDFs will open offline, in Acrobat.
Check Browser Settings checks your browser settings for compatibility with Acrobat
each time Acrobat is launched.
Allow Fast Web view displays PDFs from the Web one page at a time. If this option is not
selected, the entire PDF will download before it is displayed.
Allow Background Downloading allows a PDF document to continue downloading
from the Web, even after the first requested page displays on-screen in a Netscape
Navigator-compatible browser. If you do not select this option, only the requested
page downloads to your computer, and other pages are downloaded as you request
them.
Display Splash Screen At Startup shows the splash screen each time Acrobat is
launched.
Certified Plug-ins Only loads only Adobe-certified third-party plug-ins.This option may
be required if you are using the Web Buy feature. If you change this option, you must
restart Acrobat by clicking Relaunch in the General Preferences dialog box.
Use Page Cache places the next page in a buffer even before you view the page in
Acrobat.This reduces the amount of time it takes to page through a document.
Use Logical Page Numbers allows you to set page numbering in a PDF document using
the Document > Number Pages command.You typically do this when you want PDF
page numbering to match the numbering printed on the pages. A page’s number,
followed by the page position in parentheses, appears in the status bar and in the Go To
Page, Delete Pages, and Print dialog boxes. For example, if the first page in a document
is numbered “i”
, it might appear as “i(1 of 10)”
. If this option is not selected, Acrobat
ignores page numbering information in documents and numbers pages using arabic
numbers starting at 1.
Note:
You will get unexpected results from the Go Back command in your Web browser if
you do not select this option. For example, if you link to another document from a partially
downloaded PDF document and then want to return to that document by using Go Back,
you return to the first page of the PDF document, even if you were not on the first page.
This option should alleviate most cases of unexpected Go Back behavior in your Web
browser.
Allow File Open Actions and Launching File Attachments warns you of security risks
when you open a file in another application from a link in a PDF document and gives
you a chance to cancel the operation. If this option is not selected, links to files in other
applications are disabled.
Open Cross-Document Links In Same Window opens linked PDF documents and views
in one window to minimize the number of windows open in Acrobat. If you do not
