Print Dialogue Box Too Small Since Latest Update Sept 2021

Since last week's Creative Cloud update, the print dialogue box is too small, making the font size and the preview window of the document to be printed very small and hard to read. In addition, the recent documents window has had the font size decreased significantly, also hard to read now. How to change back to pre-update settings? I'm using Acrobat Pro DC, Vers 2021.007.20091.

 

I've tried the following changes with no improvement

Edit - Preferences - General and select "Auto Detect" under "Scale for screen resolution"> Click OK

Thanks

Hi lornab34363975,

Thanks for reaching out to us and sorry for the inconvinience you faced. Can you please let us know the screen resolution and scaling of your system?

Window Settings> System> Display> Scale and Layout.

 

Also, you can change the display size of Acrobat application content too. Go to View in top bar> Display Size> Small/Standard/Large.

Please try out Standard or Large and let us know if it resolves your issue.

 

Thanks

shrebhat

Shrebhat, you're great! Somehow my View/Display Size had gotten reset to small instead of standard. That solved the problem!!! (It wasn't my documents that were displaying too small, it was all the Acrobat "framing" around them that had shrunk!

 

Can I ask you another Acrobat question on a different topic? Is there any way to insert a footer in an Acrobat PDF that contains the filepath of the document? It's a standard feature on all MS Office software, and some of your competitors in PDF creation software inclue that feature. From what I've seen, Acrobat can only insert date, time, page number, and Bates numbering in a footer (or header). Without needing to know machine language, is there a way to insert a filepath in a footer? If not, could you please add it to the list of next generation requests?

 

Thanks so much,

Lorna
