Hi. I currently have a problem with preview.

A few weeks ago, as I was saving multiple webpages in PDF, Chrome asked me if I wanted to open them all in one document, to which I confirmed.

The next day, as I was opening other PDF documents in preview, I realized that all my documents were opening up in one window still. This made consulting different documents a big hassle. I tried to look for solutions, but nothing has come up. In order to open documents in separate windows, I have to manually right- and select 'Open in New Window' each and every time.

Are there any permanent solutions to this problem? Thanks.
 
When preview is running click 'Preview'->Preferences, then click the "general" tab. There is an option called "When opening files". Mine is set to "Open groups of files in the same window". My guess is yours is set to "Open all files in one window".
