Nah, I was just joking around.

Recommended reading 2024:

LaTeXguide.org • LaTeX-Cookbook.net • TikZ.org

NEW: TikZ book now 40% off at Amazon.com for a short time.

And: Currently, Packt sells ebooks for $4.99 each if you buy 5 of their over 1000 ebooks. If you choose only a single one, $9.99. How about combining 3 LaTeX books with Python, gnuplot, mathplotlib, Matlab, ChatGPT or other AI books? Epub and PDF. Bundle (3 books, add more for higher discount): https://packt.link/MDH5p

How to change the default pdf page size

Post by Singularity »

Old thread, I know (sorry). But Latex documentation seems to have a real dearth of examples (which is extra difficult on a Latex newbie.

I'm looking for an example of where and how I use the package option "pdfstartview=FitH" if you can?

Thanks.

Hi,
Old thread, I know (sorry).
so why didn't you start a new one? You could have placed a link to the old topic. Now your question is hard to see. Also, the original question is marked as solved, so some fellow uses might not read it againg for stumbling across your question. Ne need for sorry, it did not hurt anyone - opening a new topic would just improve your change to get answers.
I'm looking for an example of where and how I use the package option "pdfstartview=FitH" if you can?
For example

Code: Select all

\hypersetup{pdfstartview=FitH}
or when loading hyperref, specifying it as option:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[pdfstartview=FitH]{hyperref}
By the way, since you visit us often, perhaps it would be a good idea to choose a nice login name.
