Checking the flow of a new article

This Hand pointer with the arrow pointing down from a crossbar enables the reader to start reading the article at any place he or she chooses. You can use it to check the flow of your article. However, because you’re currently at the end of the new article you’ve just defined, you need to go back to the place where you defined the first article box before you click it, so that you can check the flow of the entire article from start to finish. Before you click this pointer and start checking the flow of the article, you may want to adjust the default fit-visible zoom magnification setting that’s currently in effect in Acrobat, because all articles in a PDF document apply the default fit visible zoom magnification setting to any article that you’re reading. To change this setting, press Ctrl+K (Ô+K on the Mac) to open the Preferences dialog box, click Page Display in the list box on the left, and enter an appropriate percentage value in the Max Fit Visible Zoom text box at the bottom of the dialog box (this starts out at a whopping 800%) before clicking OK. To check the flow of the article, click the Hand pointer with the arrow pointing down from a crossbar somewhere in the text of the first article box, and then continue to click the Hand pointer (which loses the crossbar while retaining the downward-pointing arrow) to view in succession each portion of every article box in the article. Acrobat lets you know when you’ve reached the end of the article (the last visible portion of the last article box) by adding a crossbar at the bottom of the downward-pointing arrow on the Hand pointer. When you click this Hand pointer, Acrobat returns you to the top of the article, and the page resumes the magnification setting currently in effect in the Document window (as shown in the Magnification text box on the Zoom toolbar).
