When I open an untagged document in Adobe Reader, a window pops-up with title "Reading Untagged Document" asking to select reading options to prepare the document for reading. I would like to automatically select "Cancel" on this panel. How can I do this ?

My Product Information:
Reader 7.0.8, Windows

You can turn off this preference.

Thanks, but I'd like a clear answer, how can I turn off this feature in preference ? I tried all options I found in preference without success. Which option must be (un)selected to turn off this feature ?

My version of Adobe Reader is 7.0.8

Edit / Preferences / Reading / Screen Reader Options / Page vs Document - when I set this to "Only read the currently visible pages" this annoying "feature" went away.

jsaling,
Edit/Preferences/Reading/Screen Reader Options/Page vs Document - when I set this to "Only read the currently visible pages".

Didn't work for me until I also UNchecked "Confirm before tagging documents"
I have Windows Home, Reader v8.1.1

I tried this fix, and at first it did not work for me either. However, when I answered the same questions in the pop up dialog, and selected the check box to always use the default reader preferences, then the problem went away.
