Hi, I am having trouble to let the Adobe display the same Pdf page after recompiling.
I am editing a 65 page document. When I change sth. on page 10, recompile it, the Adobe always goes back and display the first page and I have to keep flipping it to page 10 in order to see the editing results. Does anyone knows how to change this and let the Adobe display the same page where I am editing.
Thanks

Re: How to let the Adobe display the same page after recompiling
Hi, you didn't mention in which program you edit your files. I use (and recommend) Kile for editing LaTeX and Kpdf for pdf preview. The sweet thing is that, whenever you recompile document with it's preview in Kpdf opened, it automatically refresh preview and display the page you're on, not the first one. You even don't have to close-open pdf preview every time you recompile doc
Hope this help

Sorry, I should have mentioned this. I am using WinEdit, and Adobe 8.0, in Windows Vista. It works properly in my other machine under Windows XP though.
