Open pdf in external acrobat adobe reader and open multiple pdf's at one time
Is it possible to open pdf in external acrobat adobe reader and open multiple pdf's at one time. It does seem to open in adobe reader but I can't use the full adobe reader features including maximizing the window or do any annotation. Also whenever I click on a different entry in my library, the file is opened in the same window and the previous pdf file is closed. Can I open multiple files at one time?
But if you just have links, those are going to open in your web browser.
I don't mind making that setting permanently, but how? What do you mean by "on-demand"?
You guys are so quick on updates. Awesome! Thank you so much!
I'm on Ubuntu 12.04, i.e. linux, and also do not have "Open in External Viewer" in Zotero Standalone. I would be great if I could choose the editor on a case-by-case basis, both in Zotero Standalone or Plugin. Does anyone have an idea how to get it to work?
Is the file linked or attached?
I also am looking for option/way to open pdfs from standalone in Acrobat/foxit reader. Just to give you all an idea. I am using Ubuntu 12.04 and have installed Foxit reader for pdfs. It is set as default application to open PDFs in Ubuntu and Firefox both. When I open a pdf Firefox-zotero by right click and 'View pdf' option it is opened in Foxit. But when I use standalone and try to open by right click and selecting 'View pdf' than it is open in 'Evince' which comes with Ubuntu even if its not a system default for pdf, default is Foxit.
Forgot to mention that I am using Zotero standalone v.3.0.11.1 and there are no more updates available.
Need your suggestions.
Thanks

see if those suggestions help
1. On the Zotero pane, right click on a PDF file.
2. Click "Show File", it will show the file location in Zotero storage.
3. Right click on the file, select "Open with"
4. Click "Choose default program" and select the preferred program
Hope this works for you too.
