1. Click "Edit" - "Preferences".

2. When the "Preferences" dialog box appears, click "Full Screen" in the left pane.

3. In the right pane, check "Advance every___ seconds".

4. Next to "Advance every", enter the number of seconds you want Adobe Reader 7 to wait before advancing to the next page.

5. If desired, check "Loop after last page" to continue re-displaying the PDF.

6. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.
