Re: Adobe Acrobat for Android : Change default paper size for printing

I have saved a pdf book.  I can open it in Adobe Reader in my Android phone.  The only way I've found to change the print size is buy pinching, but that runs the sides of the pages off the phone.  So I can't change the print size, which is tiny and unreadable.  I tap the three dots, and go to Printer, but there is no option to change the print size.  How can I change the print size?  Or, how do I open this book in another app on my Android?

    Hi @itriedall,

     

    Hope you are doing well. Thanks for writing in!

     

    The print feature you use through Acrobat is provided by the Android OS and not managed by Adobe or Acrobat.

     

    So, when you get into the print window through Acrobat, your device is taking things ahead. Acrobat's work is only up to a handshake, where it forwards the file to the print section.

     

    Hope this clarifies your question.


    Regards,
    Souvik.

    I found out how to change the font size!  Go to a page in the pdf book and double tap the page.  That works perfectly.
