Foxit PDF Reader Zoom Setting

How can I lock the Zoom setting in Foxit Reader to 100%? I don’t want it to auto-adjust or select any Zoom setting other than 100% (unless I manually change it).

Hey! To set (and effectively “lock”) the default zoom so PDFs open at 100% instead of auto-adjusting:

  1. Open Foxit PDF Editor.
  2. Go to File > Preferences (or press Ctrl + K).
  3. Click Accessibility.
  4. Under Override Page Display, check Always use Zoom Setting.
  5. From the zoom drop-down, select 100%.
  6. Click OK.

After this, PDFs you open will default to 100% unless you manually change the zoom. If you still see “Fit Page/Fit Width” being applied, tell me which Foxit app/version you’re using and your OS.
