Document Classes ⇒ "Show Cover Page During Two-Up" by default?

[Silent Tortoise]

The "Show Cover Page During Two-Up" feature in acrobat takes effect in the side-by-side viewing modes. It displays the coverpage seperately. So for double sided documents where the page numbers alternate between being on the left and right, the page numbers are displayed correctly on the OUTSIDE of the two page spread.

I'm using TeXnicCenter with MikTeX. How do I make the "Show Cover Page During Two-Up" option be set by default. There must be some flag encoded in the PDF. Is there a LaTeX command that will set this flag?

You can sort-of do this using a tool called "Advanced PDF Tools v2.0" by going to Open Action, then setting Page layout to Continuous-facing. This tool isn't even free. Is there a better way?

Hi Silent Tortoise,

welcome to the LaTeX Community board!
If you use hyperref, try

Code: Select all

\hypersetup{pdfpagelayout=TwoPageRight}

or give it as option:

Code: Select all

\usepackage[pdfpagelayout=TwoPageRight]{hyperref}

Thanks. That works great.
