I have combined several pages into one pdf Binder.  Although all the pages were built on 8.5 x 11 inch paper, inside the combined pdf they are different sizes on the scree.  How can I achieve continuity between all the page sizes?

Hi nfotx6708 ,

Could you please tell what application you are using to combine pdf?

I am using Acrobat XI, 11.0.7.

I combined several pdf files into one binder.  In the thumbnails column, the first page highlights blue around the entire page and that page is seen in full size to the right of the thumbnails column.  The second thumbnail highlights in blue around the entire page but has the black "viewing window" representing what is showing full size on the screen.

I have attached an image showing the difference between page one and two.  I would prefer to have the entire binder display pages in the same size.  All of these pages are 8.5 x 11 inches in physical form.

Hi everyone,

 

I have Adobe Acrobat Pro, I believe 9 or 10.  I received a document today in 2 pages that I need to combine into 1 page.  I believe the original page was bigger than a normal size piece of paper which is why I have 2 pages.  The problem is it cut the document in half and I need them side by side to be able to read the document.  I know I can use the vew menu and place them side by side but I also need to email this document out for other to read.  Can you help?

I have to scan an 80-page document via my Officejet Pro 6968. Each page has content on both sides and this device doesn't support scanning front and back. This means I'll have to scan the odd pages first to a PDF file and repeat this operation for the even pages, leaving me with two PDFs. 

 

If I were to combine these two into 1 PDF, is there a way to restore the correct page order, without having to do it manually with Organize Pages?

I got this one sorted out. I didn't realize Acrobat DC has a Scan tool that has the option to scan both sides. (I don't use this app much).
