Creating PDF in Landscape

[osbornear1]

Is there a way to create a new document/PDF in landscape orientation?  I have a student that is sight impaired and is in need of an increased font.  Printing in landscape mode removes the bottom 1/3 of the page.  Due to mathmatical equations that are necessary in the work, converting it to Word does not good.  Thanks!

How does you create the PDF file?

[osbornear1]

Open Adobe Acrobat DC - select Create PDF - select Blank Page - select Create.  ?  Am I doing that wrong?

Does you create a empty document?

[osbornear1]

I'm trying to... but only if I can create it in landscape mode.  If portrait is the only option available, then we will have to figure out another solution.

You can rotate the page.

[osbornear1]

True... but if the page is created in portrait, it just simply rotates the page as well as text/image.

It's ok.  I'm too frustrated to keep trying so I'll go a different route.

Whatever the advertising may Suggest, Acrobat is a truly terrible way to author (create from scratch) PDF files. The beauty of PDF, and the reason it became so popular, is that you use your favourite apps, then just convert to PDF (and KEEP the original). To edit, throw away the PDF, edit the original, and remake the PDF. Fir instance, use Word or PowerPoint gir simple designs.

I'm in full agreement.  Acrobat is horrible to author something in... so I'm just giving up and will figure something else out.
