Opening PDFs
You can open a PDF in many ways: from within the Acrobat application, from your email application, from your file
system, or on a network from within a web browser. The initial view of the PDF depends on how its creator set the
document properties. For example, a document may open at a particular page or magnification.
Some PDFs are restricted and open only after you enter a password provided to you by the PDF owner. If a document
is encrypted, you may need the permission of its creator to open it. In the case of some restricted or certified
documents, you may be prevented from printing a file or copying information to another application. If you have
trouble opening a PDF or can't use certain features, contact its author or owner.
If a document is set to open in Full Screen mode, the toolbar, command bar, menu bar, and window controls are not
visible. You can quit Full Screen mode by pressing Ctrl+L.
