"Saving a PDF file when printing is not supported. Instead, choose File > Save." I can usually change a PDF page size from 13x7.5 to 8.5x11 using the Save as PDF feature from the print option. Since Adobe has taken away this feature, is there a different way to convert PDF page sizes to a different size in Adobe? As an example, Legal size to Letter size. Thank you

Adobe did not "take away" this feature, Apple locked down its PDF Services (which can produce low-end PDFs 1.4 only) so that no other virtual print driver can be used.

But why? How do I flatten a pdf to remove all forms (make them non-editable) and make it openable with all pdf viewers now?

You can flatten a form using a script, by executing this code:

this.flattenPages();

There are better ways of doing it, though, such as digitally signing the file, which doesn't remove the fields but does lock them and allows you to know if their values have been edited later on (because it will invalidate the signature).
