Select another tool

By default, the Select tool  is active when Reader opens, because it is the most versatile tool.

Specialized tools, such as those for zooming in or adding review comments, are available on toolbars and on the Tools menus.

Select a tool

 Do one of the following:

  • Select a tool in a toolbar.

  • Choose Tools > [toolbar name] > [tool].

Switch temporarily to the Zoom In or Hand tool

You can use these tools temporarily, without deselecting the current tool.

  • To select the Hand tool temporarily, hold down the spacebar.
  • To select the Zoom In tool temporarily, hold down Ctrl+spacebar/Command+spacebar.

When you release the keys, Reader reverts to the previously active tool.
