PDF PreviewPermanent link for this heading

If you have Adobe Acrobat Reader DC installed, it will be used for PDF previews (if accordingly configured in the web browser). To prevent that the tools pane of the reader is opened for each document, proceed as follows:

  1. Close the web browser.
  2. Open Adobe Acrobat Reader DC from your desktop.
  3. Disable the Open tools pane for each document option under “Edit” > “Preferences” > "Documents".
  4. Close Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.

When you fold the tools pane to the right, it will not be opened automatically anymore.

Using Adobe Acrobat ProPermanent link for this heading

When using Adobe Acrobat Pro the following behavior may occur:

  • Adobe Acrobat Pro displays a download confirmation dialog.
  • Adobe Acrobat Pro may crash.

Solution:

  • In addition to Adobe Acrobat Pro, Adobe Acrobat Reader can be installed.
  • Alternatively, you can use another PDF viewer.
  • In the Fabasoft Cloud select “View as Image” in “Basic Settings” > “Accessibility” tab > Preview in the Document View. In this case, images are generated instead of PDF previews.
