This feature was available in Preferences in Adobe XI, but either no longer there or very well hidden. I frequently have large documents with multiple page sizes. The odd page sizes will stop a print job, wasting paper and time.
Is this feature still available and, if so, where is it, please?
I know I can hover my mouse over the lower left corner to get the size, but this is not practical with 100+ page documents.
Thanks!

I figured it out - it turns out the Edit/Preferences function is there, but if you have chosen a different color scheme, i.e., gray or dark gray, the title row at the top is displayed as white text on a white background, therefore invisible. Once I hovered the mouse over the title bar, the options became visible and I was able to show the page size on the bottom of the page portion of the screen.
I felt like an idiot, but it works now.
Thanks for all your support!
Now if only I can figure out how to mark this as "answered", my day will be made!

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

That works very nicely – for Adobe Acrobat XI. I upgraded to DC today and can’t find it.
Thanks, though.

I guess it's (yet another) step back in terms of functionality between XI and DC...

I have the "Always show document page size" checked on the Preferences, and hover the mouse over the title bar does not work
