pdf format

pdf format

[H. van der Meer]

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 583 bytes --]

In the past, when viewing the pdf produced by ConTeXt in the viewer of my browser (Safari) there is shown one page at a time. Old ones still do this. 
But pdf produced nowadyas is different, 4 pages appear in the browser window. The same happens for example looking at the latest LuaTeX manual. 

Has something changed in pdf production? 
Perhaps some parameter that the Adobe-plugin of the browser lets show the pdf that way?

And if this is indeed the case, how can I get the original behaviour of one page per view back?

it's a browser setup (although a document does contain info about it 
being doublesided so that a viewer can adapt accordingly)

if i remember right, in the past the pdf shown in safari was a just a 
vertical sequence of bitmaps

at some point browsers like chrome got a pdf viewer built-in too, but i 
always disable that (somewhat crippled) one in favour of the reader 
plugin.

Re: pdf format

I understand. But related to this, how can I add Document Properties? Such as setting the Author, Title, Subject, etc. fields as shown in the Adobe Document Properties dialogue.
Mind that I have the Adobe Reader only.

Many of the ConTeXt manuals seem to put the Adobe Reader into a
specific mode, for example two page, even when one takes care to setup
the reader according to one's own preference, for example one page. I
find this somewhat annoying. Is this simply a "feature" of the Adobe
Reader activated when displaying a properly doublesided document or is
this something that the (ConTeXt) author chose through, say,
\setupinteraction ? That is, is the Adobe Reader to be blamed (for not
honoring its setup) or rather the document?

Document settings normally override viewer settings.
AFAIK only Adobe Reader uses these settings, others ignore them.

With ConTeXt, try options of \setupinteraction and \setupinteractionscreen

it's a pdf property (and decent viewers should be able to deal with it) 
and especially handy for doublesided viewing so that the viewer knows 
that the first page should be shown alone at the right
