how do I set the page size when I create a document

New Here ,
Aug 11, 2017 Aug 11, 2017

I am trying to create a pdf file from the clipboard which contains images; some pages are fine with 81/2x11; however it either does not put the full image or creates it on an odd size page.  Is there any way to set the page size in Adobe Acrobat DC Pro?

To adjust the page size after you've created a PDF from Clipboard:

  1. Choose View > Show/Hide > Navigation Panes > Page Thumbnails

Another thing you can try start by creating a blank PDF that has the exact page size you want to use.

  1. Choose View > Tools > Edit PDF > Open
  2. Then use Ctrl-V / Cmd-V to paste the clipboard content onto a page.
  3. You can still resize the pasted item(s) if needed after doing this.
