TeXnicCenter - open as PDF

739 views Asked by At

I have just spent some time installing TeXnicCenter and tried to configure it properly. I'm almost there now! The only issue I have is that every time I compile the document I'm working on as a PDF document, the document doesn't open directly in Adobe Reader X. Instead I only get the "opening screen" of Adobe Reader X to pop up, meaning that I have to choose "Open file" and navigate to the proper folder where the document is saved to view it. This is frustrating and time-consuming - especially if I want to check my progress often. Is there any way I can configure this so that Adobe Reader X automatically opens the file I'm compiling, without me having to navigate to the proper folder?

Any help will be truly appreciated!

Since this question is TeX related, you might have better luck posting in http://tex.stackexchange.com, StackExchange's TeX site.

You should look into this question, pay special attention to the first two answers, they should work just fine.

Cheers.

In Adobe Reader X, go to Edit -> Preferences, there in category general there should be a checkbox Enable protected mode at startup. Uncheck this, exit adobe and try again. Does it work now?
