How to let the Adobe display the same page after recompiling

Post by Yuanshun »

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
Yuanshun

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

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 ;)

You are right … but not everybody is running under Linux.

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.
