Using menus and tools
You can show or hide the Acrobat menus and toolbars. The toolbars contain buttons for
many commonly used tools and commands in Acrobat, such as scrolling and zooming.
The document pane menu contains a smaller group of commands for setting General
preferences and for getting information on the current document. A small triangle at the
lower right of a tool indicates the presence of hidden tools.
To show or hide the menu bar:
To hide the menu bar, choose Window > Hide Menu Bar. To show it again, press F9.
To show or hide a toolbar:
To show or hide a toolbar, choose Window > Toolbars and choose a toolbar name. A check
markcheck mark appears in the menu next to a toolbar name if it is currently visible.
You can also show or hide a toolbar by right-clicking (Windows) or Ctrl-clicking (Mac OS)
in the toolbar area, then selecting a toolbar.
To separate a toolbar:
Drag the toolbar by the separator bar between two groups of icons. You can drag the bar
back to its original location to reattach it. You can also drag another toolbar on top of it to
combine them in a single floating window.
To change the orientation of a floating toolbar, right-click (Windows) or Ctrl-click (Mac OS)
it and choose Horizontal, One Column, or Two Column.
To choose a command from the document pane menu:
Click the triangle in the upper right corner of the document pane to open the menu, and
drag to the command you want. To close the pane menu without choosing a command,
click anywhere.
To select a tool in a toolbar:
Do one of the following:
•
To select a visible tool, click the tool, or press the letter key shown in the tool’s tip. (Move
the pointer over a tool to see its tip.)
•
To select a visible tool for only one use, Ctrl-click (Windows) or Option-click (Mac OS)
the tool. This works for any tool except zoom, select text, select graphic, crop, movie,
and article.
