I'm using a MacBook with OS X 10.8.4, MacTeX and TeXMaker 4.0.4.
When I create a PDF using PDFLaTeX and open it with the internal viewer of TeXMaker, it it skewed vertically like illustrated in the attachment. Page format is A4. The problems occurs with the embedded viewer window as well as with the standalone viewer window. The PDF itself should be okay as it is displayed normally when opened with any other viewer (Mac Preview, Adobe Acrobat). I already re-installed TeXMaker, but this did not help.
I would like to use the internal viewer as I use the SyncTeX a lot (in both directions).

Does this occur with every document produced by LaTeX? To make sure if this is a LaTeX problem please check if other PDF documents not produced by LaTeX show the same effect. If you don't find one, try to create a document that is as small as possible and shows this effect in TeXmaker. You can post it here as attachment by upload to the forum server.
Actually the best way is to address this question to the TeXmaker developers.

Occurs also for non-LaTeX PDFs. I opened a new issue on the developers page:

There is already a query to your report from one of the project members.

Hello there!
I am struggling with the same problem and I could'n find anywhere else in the internet an answer to it. I have tried to follow the requested query by the developers team, but it seems that the link doesn't exist anymore. Please, could anyone help me to fix this problem?
