Description

void SetDisplayPreferences ( string $prefs )

Specify the way the document shall be presented on the screen when the PDF file is opened in Adobe Reader. When the user opens the finished file in Adobe Reader, these values will determine the initial appearance and layout.

Parameters

This parameter takes a string containing any one or more of the possible values separated by any characters (e.g. comma, forward slash or space).

All the options start as false, and can only be set true by this command. Each setting is added to those previously set.
