New Blank Page Always Opens Letter Page Size (Acrobat Pro)

I have searched for a solution related to this but posts start foucsing on printing and changing paper size.

 

If I open Acrobat Pro, then select File->Create->Blank Page, it opens a new page with page size Letter.

I am in UK. I always want the file to be created by default in A4 paper size.

 

How do I change the start-up default paper size in Acrobat Pro so that when I create a new document, it always opens in the page size I have selected rather than Letter.

Hi @HJ63107205 

 

Thank you for reaching out.

When you create a PDF from Acrobat>Tools>Create PDF from Blank Page, by default, it creates the document in letter size. 

There's no such setting that allows changing the page size. As you have also figured out, the workaround is to convert the page to A4 later using the Adobe print-to-PDF method.

I'm sorry, but how on Earth is Adobe the industry standard PDF option? This is pathetic. Absolutely pathetic.
