Getting the best view of Signpost with Adobe Reader

Some people have difficulty viewing Signpost in Adobe Reader.

The first difficulty is that of having to scroll up and down to follow the columns. The answer to that is to fit a full page onto the screen.   This is very comfortable with a modern 1024 x 1280 screen and is still acceptable on a 768 x 1024 screen.   If your screen is smaller than that then you would probably be better off with paper copies.

To fit a single page to the screen either use the menus [View ->Fit Page] or hold down the <CONTROL> key and press the  <0> key (the zero that is).  You can then move up and down a page at a time using the <PAGE UP> and <PAGE DOWN> keys.   You can get an even bigger image either by using the menus [View -> Full Screen] or by holding down the <CONTROL> key and pressing the <L> key.   This will get rid of the menus and status bars.   Restore them by the same <CONTROL> & <L> key strokes.

The other difficulty is that some pages are printed sideways.   You don’t need to twist your neck or physically rotate the monitor to read these.   Menu [View -> Rotate View -> Clockwise] or holding down both the [SHIFT] and [CONTROL] keys then pressing the [+] key will rotate the screen clockwise. Menu [View -> Rotate View -> CounterClockwise] or holding down both the [SHIFT] and [CONTROL] keys then pressing the [-] key will rotate the screen anti-clockwise.
