[OS X TeX] texshop and preview

Dear all,

I am reviving this link (started in October 2009) in the hopes that  
the situation is different now. Can one set up TeXShop to use Adobe's  
Acrobat viewer? The reason I'm interested is that the preview is  
giving me incorrect visualizations in a class of pictures I'm  
producing. For instance, the code

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usepackage[papersize={51pt,51pt},margin=.5pt,centering]{geometry}

\begin{document}

\parindent 0pt

\begin{tikzpicture}
  \draw[line width=.5pt] (0,0) circle (24.75pt);
   \draw (0,0) node{24.75pt};
\end{tikzpicture}

\end{document}

should (and does) produce a circle centered in (but not touching the  
sides of) a square. The preview in TeXShop (and in Apple's native  
application, which is no surprise, given that, as Herb explained in  
this list, it uses the same PDFkit framework) shows a circle chopped  
off at the top.

Best regards,

Margarida
