- Scroll: You can scroll through an entire multi-page document using the Viewer scroll bar. You will still see the page numbering at the bottom of the screen and in thumbnail view, but the pages auto-advance when you scroll.
Note: Near Native view for documents that contain more than 500 pages uses Page mode even if you select Scroll as your preferred document viewing method.
- Page: Limits scrolling to one page of a document; however, this option comes with better performance, especially when viewing complex documents. To move between pages, use the page navigator at the bottom of the viewer or expand thumbnail view and use it to move between pages.
Page Layout
Allows you to select your preferred document viewing method for all views except Text view, which always uses Page mode:
Tip: If you click on either the Next Page or Previous Page arrow in the page navigator 
, the arrow remains active (until you click on another web page element), allowing you to press the Enter key or space bar on your keyboard to move to the next or previous page of the current document.
If you change any setting, click Save. Use the Pages menu to select a new page and exit the Preferences page.
