PDF pages changing size when trying to edit text

I'm trying to translate a 585 page book that i have meticulously scanned in. I have managed to compile the whole document so I can begin to work on editing it with the translation (this is for personal use but there's a lot of photos in it), but for some reason when I am editing text, the page size shrinks considerably compared to the rest of the document. I thought it was just a visual glitch in Acrobat but when i view the edited PDF in my firefox browser, the page has changed size. I would definitely prefer for this to not happen, so what can I do to prevent this?

Hi @abiiiii
 
Hope you are doing well and sorry to hear that
 
Is this an issue with a particular PDF file or with all the PDFs? Please try with a different PDF file and check.
 
What is the version of the Acrobat DC you are using? To check the version go to Help > About Acrobat and make sure you have the recent version 23.08.20470 installed. Go to Help > Check for updates and reboot the computer once.
 
Also try to repair the installation from the help menu (Win Only) and see if that works.
 
Please try to reset the Acrobat preferences as described here https://adobe.ly/498oJJp

 

Let us know how it goes.

Same problem with scanned pdf pages.  Working on MAC with Acrobat Pro, Version 2024.002.21005

In the display, some pages are large and some are small, yet the original scanned pages were all the same size, and the document was fine until I began editing.  I did the Acrobat preferences reset as described here https://adobe.ly/498oJJp

The document is still displaying various sizes of pages.  Please see screenshot.

I am experiencing the same issue, this is frustrating. I delete my documents after I separate them and now I have to recheck and redue it all
