Hi experts!

I have created an XDP project in Designer 9.0.

Is there some way to specify that PDF-files, generated from this XDP, are have two-up view ?

See on screenshot.Adobe.png I need to have that view by default.

Hi,

Try this in the docReady event of the root node:

app.execMenuItem("TwoPages");

See here: http://assure.ly/umTdwf for more examples.

Thanks, but my problem didn't solve completely.

Whan I open this PDF in Adobe Acrobat Reader everything works fine - it displays two pages view.

But when I open the same file from Internet Explorer in Adobe Acrobat ActiveX control, it doesn't work, perhaps because in this case menu bar is not visible.

May be there is a way to show menu, exec app.execMenuItem("TwoPages") and then hide menu from javascript?

Hi,

I suspect that this may not work either. Both this and hte above method are using the Acrobat scripting environment and I am not sure if all methods are available in a browser.

var oDoc = event.target;

oDoc.layout = "TwoColumnLeft";

Hope that helps,

Niall
