PDF-XChange Editor DEFAULTS

[Erik_S]

Can any of the defaults be changed by the user for PDF-XChange Editor? I would like it to start at the 100% size instead of the much larger page size it now starts at. I have 28" monitors and starting at 900% is quite irritating.

Also, when I go to Text Editing Tools -> Format, can I change the default font size from 12 pt to 10 pt?

I appreciate this terrific program. It meets all my needs, except for these two nits, superbly.

Thanks.

Hi Erik_S,

I would like it to start at the 100% size instead of the much larger page size it now starts at.

You can set the Default Page Zoom in "File menu > Preferences > Page Display" (circled in the figure). The settings in the blue box in the figure are also relevant, so please set them as necessary.

After changing the font size, select the text with the mouse and press the Make default button to make the text size the default. If you press the Make default button without selecting any text, the setting will not be applied.

You can also set default font size for individual styles from the properties in the Comment Styles palette.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
