LyX ⇒ How to change the default pdf page size
How to change the default pdf page size
This might be a stupid question, but when I create the pdf output, the default size is always like 55% of the original page size, I tried to go to document->settings-->page layout to change to different options, but it's always like 55% or 58% of the original page size, how could I change it?
Thanks
Thanks

Re: How to change the default pdf page size
I don’t understand what you mean by the “the original page size”. What’s that?
Is it using the wrong paper size? Are the margins too big? Does it not look close enough to the editing screen? (LyX is not meant to be WYSIWYG.)

For example, after creating the pdf file, the start view is always very small. How could I fit it to display 100% ?

I think that this has nothing to do with LyX. Go to Edit > Preferences > Page Display in Adobe Reader, and set "Zoom" to some value other than "Automatic".

Re: How to change the default pdf page size
Is that Adobe Reader? (Seriously, we need to know things like what viewer you’re using if the issue is a viewing problem!)
In Adobe Reader, try something like Edit > Preferences > Page Display > Default Layout and Zoom, and choose something like "Fit Width". (At least that's the sequence for the linux version 9.3.3 of Adobe Reader. I don't use Windows.)
Only if that doesn’t work should you think about blaming LyX and looking into hyperref options.

Many thanks to everyone!
especially the hyperref manual!
Indeed by adding in the additional options: pdfstartview= 'option value', the problem is solved!
option value can be:
XYZ
Fit
FitH
FitV
FitR
FitB
FitBH
FitBV

Yes, it is adobe reader. I tried to change the setting in adobe, but it doesn't give me the expected result. But, maybe because I am using the stupid Windowsfrabjous wrote:Is that Adobe Reader? (Seriously, we need to know things like what viewer you’re using if the issue is a viewing problem!)

Glad you have it sorted out, stupid windows and all.
