I am using Acrobat 5.1 to view scanned images.
When selecting the thumbnail tag the thumbnails are blank.
Whilst searching the web for a solution I have noticed that using acrobat to open various pdfs(but not all of them) I have the same blank thumbnail problem.
I have tried all the settings available in Acrobat to no avail.
Can you please let me know what to try next?
Thanks
In Acrobat 5 and lower, thumbnails for pages were not automatically created like they are in version 6 and above. You have to manually create the thumbnails. Open a context menu on a page in the Pages panel and choose Create Thumbnails. Doing so adds more size to your file, bu the thumbnail images are shown in the Pages panel.
