Jump to Foxit Reader - 'FoxitReader.exe' PdfFile. Open a PDF file at page 7, zoom factor 75%: 'FoxitReader.exe' PdfFile /A page=7 zoom=75%.

I'm looking for a way how to open a pdf file by using command line of Adobe and Foxit or windows.
Note: it's not a double topic of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/6557920/how-to-open-a-pdf-in-fullscreen-view-via-command-line because the marked answer does not works for me.

Before using command line just open the program AcroRd32.exe/Acrobat.exe and go to
Edit=> preferences=> Full Screen
and un-tick on Current document
only, then you can use the command line as:start ' /max 'C:Program Files Xxxxx.exe' /A 'pagemode=FullScreen' 'yourfile direction and name.pdf'

For Foxit Reader, the command would be:
'[path_to_executable]Foxit Reader.exe' <path_to_your_pdf>
. For example, on my Windows the command is: 'C:Program Files (x86)Foxit SoftwareFoxit ReaderFoxit Reader.exe' C:UsersPauliusDesktopmcs.pdf
.I don't have Adobe Reader to test but I believe the same command (different executable) should work.
