Add option to keep documents from moving/resizing Acrobat window

Some PDF documents seem to contain meta data content that's causing Adobe Acrobat DC and Adobe Acrobat Reader to move/resize their program window when such document is opened.

This behaviour is rather annoying and it may lead to accessibility issues.

Please, either stop Acrobat/Reader from moving/resizing their program window when opening a document containing such meta data information, or provide an accessibility option in Preferences to optionally have Acrobat ignore that meta data information.

Hi,
The issue faced by you is due to the setting of the document set by the user. Please see the following setting in the document :
1. Open Document→File → Properties → Initial View Tab → uncheck Center Window on screen

Please make sure the setting is not checked in your document to avoid the issue.

Thanks
Rachit

    Dear Rachit,

    I cannot add attachments here. So please give me your information on where to e-mail my files to.

    Sure, do you have an address I can send a sample PDF file to?

    (Plus optionally a short screencast demonstrating the steps.)
