Tip! By default, a single page displays in the preview window, although you can select to display up to six pages at a time by clicking the Multiple Page View button, and selecting two, four or six pages.  You can also zoom in or zoom out on the preview and manually select a zoom setting from the drop down box.

There are a number of tools within the Preview window to assist you to move effectively around a report. The Next Page, Previous Page, Forward and Backward buttons allow you to step backward and forward through the pages of a report. The Find tool allows you to search for a word/s in the report.
