Dual monitor views of one document?

Curtis Mason · 2025-02-08T12:18:24+00:00

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I'm looking for a way to use a dual monitor setup to review and markup files while having a full-size copy of my document on one screen, and another copy of the same document that I can zoom in to specific areas and markup on a second monitor, and be able to review the markups on the full-size view. I'm struggling to find the right settings to make this happen. Any help would be appreciated!

I think you will want to use the split screen option, drag the second view to the second monitor, and work between the two views. Just make sure to turn off sync view. The tools will stay with the primary view so you may want to learn keyboard shortcuts to be more efficient.
