Why does the crop tool reset?

[David_Nolan@adobeforums.com]

I just upgraded to Acrobat 6 Professional from Acrobat 5. In Acrobat 5, I would drag the crop tool to select the area I want to crop, then select the zoom tool and zoom in...when I would go back to the crop tool, it would still be selected around the area I dragged over and I would adjust the crop tool to where I need it to be. In Acrobat 6, once I select the zoom tool and go back to the crop tool, the area is no longer selected. So, there is no way to select an area with the crop tool and zoom in to fine tune the selection. That has been the fastest and easiest way to crop. I am cropping PDF's constantly all day and am lost without being able to crop that way.

Yep - you're correct.

Use the + and - zooms and then hold down the space bar and pan-across
.... the crop tool remains now..

Sweet! I completely overlooked the + and - zoom. Thanks!
