Turning PDF Files Into a Slideshow

Fed up of scrolling down long PDF documents? When using Adobe Reader in full-screen or kiosk mode, you have the option of automatically switching pages after a given time lapse instead of having to use the mouse or keyboard to switch to the next page. Please do the following:

  1. Click "Edit" > "Preferences".
  2. When the "Preferences" dialog box appears, click "Full Screen" in the left pane.
  3. Next to "Advance every...", enter the number of seconds you want Adobe Reader to wait before advancing to the next page.
  4. If desired, check "Loop after last page" to start back at the beginnning.
  5. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.

Please note this feature is not available in all versions of Adobe Reader.
