Photoshop save pdf with wrong dimension

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for help with a recurring issue when saving scanned PNG images as PDF files in Photoshop (27.3.1). Recently, the PDFs generated are partially corrupted or misread by Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and Photoshop.

The Problem: When I open these PDFs in Adobe Acrobat Reader DC, I get the following error:

"The dimensions of this page are out-of-range - Page content might be truncated."

The page size appears as 1x1 mm, making the content cropped and pixeled.

What I’ve discovered so far:

• Third-party viewers: If I open the same PDF with PDF-XChange, it displays perfectly with the correct dimensions.

• Re-opening in Photoshop: If I open the "corrupt" PDF back in Photoshop, it also shows the wrong 1x1mm size.

• The "Workaround": If I check the box "Preserve Photoshop Editing Capabilities" when saving, Photoshop is able to reopen the file correctly, but Acrobat still struggles with it.

Has anyone encountered this "out-of-range" dimension issue recently? Is there a specific setting in the PDF export (PDF/X standard, downsampling, etc.) that might be causing this conflict between Photoshop and Acrobat?

Thanks in advance for any insights!
