I have received a scanned document which I need to print out straight. It has come in askew. I used to be able to straighten the document out in Acrobat 8. Now I have Acrobat 11, I can't seem to find the command. Can you please help?

If you run Text Recognition on the file it should get deskewed. Alternatively, you can use a script, like this one I've developed: Custom-made Adobe Scripts: Acrobat -- Deskew PDF Pages

Thanks. I'll try it and let you know. I have also run "OPtimize" a couple of times, and it has worked as long as the pages are not too much askew.

Thanks again.
