When the PDF is displayed on-screen, the view displayed after clicking a link is also affected by the display mode, Single Page or Continuous. The display mode can be specified as part of the PDF viewing properties; if it set to "Default", then the local preferences as to the display mode apply. If "Continuous" is supported, the figure captions work better when placed above the figure.

Another approach involves defining the specific view for each figure through custom hypertext markers (with TimeSavers), and then using hypertext markers to link to the specific view defined. This way, each figure link take the reader to a figure-specific view which includes the entire figure plus its caption. The zoom is adjusted automatically; a non-printing "back" button restores the view. A sample PDF, demonstrating this approach is available at http://www.microtype.com/showcase/Figures.pdf
