Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know why when I open a PDF document it crops my pages to different sizes in the document. The first page is cropped to 7.5 x 10.5 and some of the other pages are cropped to 8.5 x 10.75. This is a 8.5" x 11" document. Thanks
 
Acrobat just interprets the PDF file, so it is choosing to display this way because of something in the PDF file. PDF does support a "Crop Box" instruction. Open the PDF file in a good text editor and check for it.

The only exception to this that I've seen is when Acrobat will automatically "rotate" a page to a certain orientation. I hate it... if I want my text to run in all directions, then Acrobat should respect that and not twist my page around.
