IE8 Plugin Bug? Zoom level stuck when maximizing window

[Terrixy]

Not sure if this is specific to my setup or if it was reported before. When I open up a pdf file in IE8 (tab enabled) and then maximize the window, if the default view of the file is "Fit Width", the pdf page does not automatically scale up to fit the window. Instead, it stays at the original zoom level and leaves white borders at the right side and bottom. Switching between IE tabs or minimizing the IE window can restore the correct view.

Tested on Windows XP (x86) with PDF-XChange Viewer free, and Windows 7 (x64) with PDF-XChange Viewer paid version.

An example pdf file can be found at http://www.bourns.com/data/global/PDFs/3296.pdf

Thanks

HI Terrixy,

what build of the Viewer are you using? When I open that page in IE8 and build 54 it does resize correctly for me. I'm using Vista x64 and both 32 bit and 64 bit IE8.

I will test Win 7 and XP also.

Hi again Terrixy,

I have recreated the issue in Win 7 and XP as you mentioned. We will be investigating this and keep you informed of any news. Thanks for making us aware of this.

Hi Paul,

Thanks for confirming the problem. Despite this small glitch, I have to say that PDF-XChange is the best pdf software that I've ever used - light, efficient and with excellent support. Keep up the good work!

Thanks
