Is it possible to hide Acrobat or Reader interface, in order on the screen to have only

the pdf file without menus and so on...

Thank you

You can trigger full screen mode with:

event.target.viewState = {overViewMode:4};

Yeah the Initialize even on form1 should do it I think.

The docReady event seems to do the trick!

Acrobat will pop up a warning about it so it's not foolproof. And the user would be able to exit full screen.

Thanks Jone it's works!

There is a way with a button to revert the view to normal?

Thanks

The Escape key.

Or you can script different views like to show single page: event.target.viewState = {pageViewLayoutMode:1};

Radzmar has a document that shows all the options but Adobe has messed around with acrobat.com and old links aren't working any more. Ah but I found it in my acrobat.com workspace!
