Question I have adobe acrobat 8. I have in the past (at least on 7) been able to resize the page pane (the one that comes up when you click on the page icon and lists all the pages in a pane along the side). Right now I can bring up that page pane. I can even get the little icon that you get when you hover over the right edge of the page pane (2 vertical lines with arrows pointing left and right), but I cannot get it to actually drag the window to be a larger size. I move pages around a lot and this view expanded makes it easy. Please tell me how to expand that page pane.
Thank you.
Answer Hi Jennifer,
I still use Acrobat 7 for several reasons - but this is not one of them. I think it is best explained here;
"Note that any of the panels can be dragged off the left-side panel and launched into a separate, floating window from which its functionality can be accessed. You can close it at any point, or return it to the Navigation pane by choosing View > Navigation Panels > Dock All Panels."
I think this is the only way to enlarge this enough to accomplish what you desire using Acrobat 8.
