Hi,
What do you mean by plotting exactly?
Acrobat is a PDF editor not a tool designed to plot or produce maps.
The best way to work around this is to customize a printing profile with the desired page dimensions.
For instance, if you are on Microsoft Windows, this can be configured via Control Panel => Devices and Printers => left-click once with your mouse pointing device to select the Adobe PDFMaker icon (or whatever you have as default printer device).
See here:
If you follow the steps describes on the first link (Microsoft Support forums), A tool bar will become visible at the top of the working windowa.
Click on the "Print Server" tab.
It is in the Print Server settings that you can customize a new page with the desired page dimensions.
Once you create that print profile, save it with a name.
When you're done customizing a printing profile, go back to Acrobat.
Create a blank PDF document.
With that new blank document opened in Acrobat, select Print => Use AdobePDF instead of a regular default printer device.
When the Print dialogue opens up, click on Properties (shown in the next link below):
In that dialog, Select from the dropdown menu the page printing profile that you created earlier. It will appear on that list.
Then click OK to commit the print action.
After the print job completes, the resulting document will be a blank PDF document with the page dimensions that were acquired from the Print properties.
NOTE:
If you miss these steps you'll never get it right.
Next, To embed your map image file onto the newly created blank PDF document, open the "Scan & OCR" tool to upload that image.
Using this tool will upload the map image file onto that blank PDF document and fit the the map image automatically to page dimensions of that document.
