PDF with Bookmarks View Open in Default Adobe Reader

You can set the initial view of how a PDF opens in Acrobat Std. or Pro. (not Reader). To do this open the PDF file and select File > Properties > Initial View tab and from the Navigation tab dropdown select Bookmarks Panel and Page and then save the PDF.

I'm going to move this discussion to the Acrobat forums since your question relates to this product.

I have a dumb question , what happened to my bookmarks? Now I only see ThumbNails! How do I get back to bookmarks?

I'm running Adobe Acrobat 8 Professional

THANX!

Try View > Navigation Panels > Bookmarks

-David

All my Bookmarks show up as Thumbnails. How do I get them to show as Non-thumbnails - as in written Numbers & words?

Thanx!

Hi G-W-N,

It sounds like you're still looking at the Thumbnails pane, not the Bookmarks pane. 

Can you post a screenshot of what you're seeing?

-David

This aren't bookmarks. This is the pages or thumbnails panel.

OK - why are my bookmarks now showing in a seperate window? They used to be not in a seperate window!

This is the bookmarks panel as a seperate window. You can dock the panel.

THANX! Is there a way to re-dock the panel?

Use the menu View > Navigation Panels > Reset ...

Awesome!

Thank you so much
