Scanning to PDF changes my page size.

I have a Brother Printer/Scanner. I'm trying to scan documents onto my computer and save as PDFs. The documents I'm scanning are standard letter size but once a document opens into Adobe, it changes my page size to 10.76 by 8.26. I have been in touch with Brother support and they assure me it is not on their end. I'm tired of wasting ink and paper trying to find a solution to this problem. Any ideas would be appreciated.

It should be 8 1/2 x 11" (rather that 11x8 1/2). Maybe something there?

Hi Luke,

Thanks for your reply to my adobe question on the community page. I opened
my adobe acrobat reader program and followed your steps until Create PDF
from scanner. I only have the option to create a PDF from a file already
downloaded on my computer, it doesn't say anything about having the option
to scan.

Acrobat Reader can't scan documents.
