When users open my PDF document I want the bookmarks (that go to specific points of interest) to be showing.
I don't want them to have to click on the icon to make the bookmarks appear after they open the document.
Any suggestions?
Thank you.

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 9.0, Windows

Hi ye32ac92,

Sure. With the PDF open go to File -> Properties and under the Initial View tab next to Navigation Tab choose Bookmark Panel and Page.Hope this helps,

What version of Acrobat does this work for? I couldn't find those options.

Hi chameleon2007493 ,

I'm pretty sure that feature it has been in the same location since version 6 and still in the same place in version 9. I'm not sure for versions earlier than that. What version of Acrobat do you have? (This feature is not available in the free Adobe Reader).

Hope this helps,
