Setting preferences
You can use the Preferences dialog box in Acrobat Professional to define a default page
layout and customize your application in many other ways. These preferences control the
application on your system; they are not associated with a particular Adobe PDF
document.
Note: If you install any third-party plug-ins, set these preferences using the Third-Party
Preferences menu item.
To set preferences:
1. Do one of the following:
● Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or Acrobat > Preferences (Mac OS).
● Choose Preferences from the document pane menu.
2. In the Preferences dialog box, select one of the preference categories from the list at the
left.
3. Select preference options for that feature, and then click OK. Click Cancel to leave the
settings unchanged.
