The View Menu

ViewPresentation (Ctrl+Shift+P)

Activates the Presentation Mode. For more information, see the section about Presentation Mode.

ViewFull Screen Mode (Ctrl+Shift+F)

Enables the full screen mode. Note that full screen mode is different from presentation mode insofar as the only peculiarity of full screen mode is that it hides the window decorations, the menubar and the toolbar.

ViewZoom In (Ctrl++)

Increase the magnification of the document view.

ViewZoom Out (Ctrl+-)

Decrease the magnification of the document view.

ViewZoom to 100%

Zoom the document image to the actual size as prescribed by the document parameters.

ViewFit Width

Change the magnification of the document view to a value that makes the pages' width equal to the document view's width.

ViewFit Page

Change the magnification of the document view to a value that makes at least one whole page visible.

ViewAuto Fit

Change the magnification of the document view to a value that, depending on the size relation between the page and the view area, automatically either makes the pages' width equal to the document view's width (like fit-width), the pages' height equal to the document view's height (like fit-height), or the whole page visible (like fit-page).

ViewView Mode

This submenu makes you choose the view mode for the pages. The possible options are: Single Page (only one page per row), Facing Pages (two pages per row, in a book style), Facing Pages (Center First Page) and Overview (the number of columns is the one specified in the Okular settings).

Additionally, you can enable the Continuous mode. In continuous mode, all pages of the document are shown, and you can smoothly scroll through them. Otherwise, only one page (or one row of pages) is shown at a time.

ViewOrientation

This submenu allows you to changes the orientation of the pages of the document.

Note

The rotation is applied to the orientation of every page.

You can select Original Orientation to restore the orientation of the document, discarding all the rotations applied manually.

ViewTrim View

This submenu allows you to remove the white border of pages when viewing pages (Trim Margins item) or trim viewport to selection (Trim To Selection item).

The trim to selection mode allows you to draw a selection over the rendered page in order to define a visible bounding box to be applied to all pages in the document. Selecting a small trim bounding box enforces minimum dimensions size (20% as a percentage of total page size).

The trim margins mode is persistent across Okular restarts. The trim to selection mode is forgotten across Okular restarts.

When you switch Okular from trim margins mode to trim to selection mode, the view jumps out of trim margins mode for the bounding box selection interaction.

The trim mode can be deactivated by selecting the same menu item that activates it once again.

ViewShow/Hide Forms

Show or hides the display of the form fields of the document.

Note

This menu item is active only if the current document has form fields.
