How to set default zoom settings of view of PDFs?

Question

Hi

In sharepoint I have to open up alot of PDFs. The View is at "Windows size" at default, and I cant see what is on the screen and that is annoying. How do I set up Sharepoint so it has default at 100%?

Thanks in advance.

I am using SharePoint through a browser.

Dear Microsoft Team,

The issue for setting the default PDF file opening size still exists. Whenever i open a PDF file through SharePoint, the default size it gets opened is "Window Size" I want to set the size to "Window Width". Is there any provision in SharePoint Document Properties settings to change this default view setting to "Window Width"?

If there is no option, take the feedback and provide the option through updates.

Because Sharepoint is such a wonderful tool for corporate document management. but this default opening of document with Window Size annoys the use every time while opening the document itself. Give some add on code at the end of document link to open it with window width or specific zoom size.

Kind Regards

Dear Logan,

The PDF screen size is based on the browser zoom setting. Maybe the zoom is changed at your side. I suggest you click on the browser settings such as Edge>Zoom to see if it is 100%. If no, change it to 100% to see teh result.

I'm still having a problem with this, the buttons are now too small. Is there a way to make it so when I open the document with SharePoint, the view is automatically set to 125% instead of the screen width?
