See Dimensions of PDF when it Opens in New Tab

Hi,

On my last computer, when a PDF would open in a new tab I could hover my mouse and the dimensions of the PDF would appear in the bottom corner.

I've gotten a new computer, and I do have Adobe Acrobat DC, but this feature isn't appearing anymore. How can I get this back? I need to determine the dimensions of hundreds of PDFs and it will take SO long if I have to open each one and go into the properties.

Thanks,

    Go to Edit - Preferences - Page Display and tick the box next to "Always show document page size".

    It doesn't like the current Adobe version has an option "preferences".

    Do you know what would work on it?

    Though hovering over the bottom left does work.

    Hi Valp,

    We apologize for the delay in response to your query.

    There isn't any specific setting that is required to change to the dimension functionality available. Its a default feature that should appear automatically.

    When you open a document in Acrobat DC and hover at the left hand side bottom corner, you the dimension box should appear. Check with a different file or just to make sure you have the latest version of Acrobat DC.

    Open Acrobat>Help>Check for update.

    Regards,

    Akanchha
