PDFs with file attachments
If you open a PDF that has one or more attached files, the Attachments panel automatically opens, listing the attached
files. You can open these files for viewing, edit the attachments, and save your changes, as permitted by the document
authors.
If you move the PDF to a new location, the attachments automatically move with it.

Open or close reading mode
The reading mode view hides everything in the work area except the document and the menu bar.
❖
Choose View > Reading Mode.
Choosing Reading Mode again restores the work area to its previous view, with the same navigation buttons and
toolbar displays.
View PDFs in Full Screen mode
In Full Screen mode, PDF pages fill the entire screen; the menu bar, toolbars, and window controls are hidden. A
PDF creator can set a PDF to open in Full Screen mode, or you can set the view yourself. Full Screen mode is often
used for presentations, sometimes with automatic page advancement and transitions.
The pointer remains active in Full Screen mode so that you can click links and open notes. There are two ways to
advance through a PDF in Full Screen mode: You can use keyboard shortcuts for navigational and magnification
commands, and you can set a Full Screen preference to display Full Screen navigation buttons that you click to
change pages or exit Full Screen mode.
