Saved a scrolling web page into a very long .png/.pdf - how do I print it onto several pages?

I used the Mac native app Paparazzi to save a image of an article I found on the web. The article was on a single web page, but obviously since it was long it scrolled, so I need the app to save it as one really long .png.

I have converted the .png into a .pdf.

Problem is, when i try to print the .pdf it shrinks it to fit on a single page - obviously making it useless.

How do I print the article at 100% and cause Acrobat to break it up into individual pages?

I've clicked everything I can see on the print dialogue box and nothing helps.

I am using Acrobat DC.

Thank you!

Thomas

Selecting the Actual Size option in the Print dialog should do that.

I've selected "Actual Size" in the "Print" dialogue box, and when I hit print I just get a single page. It's sized like I'd want, but it's simply one of what should be probably 10 pages. "All" is also selected under "Page to Print."

In the "Print" dialogue box it shows a tiny red square around a section of the long .pdf. It prints out the portion within that tiny red square only. See below....
