resizing pdf

Apr 26, 2012 6:49 AM

Hi , I am having a problem resizing a pdf document (I have adobe acrobat pro 8).

Basically it is a large pdf and when viewed at 100% it is too big for the page. Is there anyway that I can resize it so that when at 100% fits the page? I don't want to use the "reflow" option because it messes up the pdf completely, all the images go to the bottom.

any idea?

    Why not view at "Fit Height". ctrl + 0

    Modifying the dimensions of a document have reprocussions when that document is Printed or viewed on a different monitor.

    View > Actual Size is typically incorrect.

     

    With Acrobat Pro, you could accomplish the task via printing to Adobe PDF and scaling.

    Thanks that what I am doing now but I was looking for a way to make sure that the doc fits a window when it's 100%. Yes I am aware of some issues I might have when printing it off, but theis doc won't be printed I don't think. Is there any way to resize it effectively ?

    thanks

    Actually no you're right, it won't be just on my system, I appreciate what Daniel Flavin said about differences on different monitors...but still what will be the way to resize it, just out of interest?

    Print to Adobe PDF with a new page size.

     

    Note: That will remove all links and bookmarks.
