A few months ago I installed Reader 8.1.1 on an XP machine.
( new install of Adobe Reader to a new new install of XP, on a new harddrive)

Sometime in the past few weeks, whenever I double click on a pdf file,
Reader will open in half of the screen, the lower half.

I went through the options, but when I open a pdf file for the first time abter booing up the machine, it will be half a page.

Today I deleted v8.1.1 and installed 8.1.2, and the same half screen startup.

Anyone see this before ?

Acrobat has a mode where you can split the screen so you can view two
documents at the same time. Place your cursor on the divider and drag
the divider towards the top.
Yes, I know about displaying two windows _inside_ Reader.
The half-page is outside Reader.

Only half the screen will show Reader, the top half is my desktop.

Oh well, I'll just re-install XP.

Thanks to all.
