Reset Application

We have several Macs on Tiger that won't save view prefs in Acrobat 8 Pro. I would like to reset (kill all prefs) the application and reset those view settings. The PDFs need to open at the set %, App, and Page layout. Right now they open in random state.

Retain Last Open State is unchecked.

Thanks

Look for the "com.adobe.Acrobat.Pro_x86_9.0.plist" file in the "Macintosh HD\Users\[USERNAME]\Library\Preferences\" directory.

You are talking about the "Initial View" and this is set individually for each pdf as it is created. This is not a viewer preference but a setting written into the file when it is created.

I missed that. Actually you can temporarily (for the session) set this view IF you are in the web browser or an IAC application with the PDF Open Parameters.
