Last week, before updating to the most recent Adobe Acrobat, company drawings were printed on 11x17 paper.  After uploading the newest version of Adobe Acrobat, those same documents now print on 81/2 x 11 paper.  How do I get the program to print on what is correctly needed, whether it be either size paper?

Thank you Shivam for all your support.  You provided me with two resolutions to my problems.

First, "What to do if Acrobat is not printing to the correct size of the document", your correct resolution was,

Open Acrobat >clickFile>Print>Under Page Size and Handeling>Check the box which says"Choose paper source by PDF paper size" ,then try to print and see if it works.

Second, "To remove the side window pane you advised;

Edit: Just to clarify in Reader DC, it's a Preference located under Edit > Preferences > Documents "Open Tool pane for each document".

Way to go Shivam.  I really appreciate your support in providing me with these steps to better utilize Adobe.  You're awesome!
