Mac Tips Daily! #162 - PDF Book View

Submitted by jcost on Wed, 08/02/2006 - 11:16.

If you view a lot of PDF files, you may want to try viewing the pages side by side, instead of scrolling in a vertical format.

Here is how to do it:

Open a PDF file with 'Preview'

Preview

From the menu, choose 'View -> PDF Display -> Facing Pages'

PDF Menu

This will make the first page appear on the left. If you want it to be more like a 'book', then choose 'Book Mode', and it will put the first page on the right.

If you can't see both pages, then select the 'zoom out/zoom in', until you can see multiple pages side by side. Also, you may want to expand Preview to show on the whole screen, this will make it easier to read the pages.
