Re: initial view fits on screen?

If you were to scale to device width in portrait mode things might get pretty tiny if you’re viewing on mobile (which I’m guessing is the case if you’re talking about viewing in portrait). While not exactly the answer to your question, something to think about is using some percentage based widths and maybe some media queries to make your site a little responsive. Just a different, albeit more complicated approach to solving your problem.
