Hi,

I'm on Public Beta 2 for High Sierra. Since Beta 1, not every PDF renders as a full page preview on my computer. Instead, as shown in my attachment, some render as an icon.

Is this happening to anyone else?

hi
i don't have that problem (yet).
how do you get your PDFs into Notes?
for me, i just drag them into a Note and they always appear as full size documents not just the icon thumb.

For the most part, the PDFs are being dragged into notes and appears as full sized documents. However, some PDFs, just some, show up as the icon. One of mine that doe this is a creditcard statement. Double tapping the icon still launches the PDF, which is the frustrating thing.

i wonder if the difference that makes some of them an icon and some of them a full view pdf is how the pdf was made.
made on a windows machine using adobe ? made on a mac using print, make pdf ?

Right click on the PDF: switch between "small images" and "large images"
