How to scan legal size document with Adobe Acrobat 6.0?

How do you scan legal (8.5 x 14.0) size documents with Adobe Acrobat 6.0.0 ? There is no option for that size paper in the scan menu. And I can't find the answer in either my help file or on-line with Adobe.com. Can anyone help me?

I use a HP OfficeJet G85. I have no problem copying/printing legal (8.5 x 14) size documents with that all-in-one unit. So I assumed it should be able to send the image it collected to my Adobe Acrobat program instead of to the printer. Am I missing something? Or should I put the question to HP instead of Adobe?

Unable to Completely Scan Legal Size Documents with Officejet Pro 8600 Plus

I am trying scan legal sized documents on my new Officejet Pro 8600 Plus. I have reviewed the forums, and this has been a recurring problem in the past (see link--- http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Scanning-Faxing-and-Copying/Scanning-Legal-Size-Documents/m-p/35416#M14... ), but does not appear to be resolved. Whether I use the document feeder or the glass, the document is cut off at the bottom, and appears to be stopping at the 'A4' size, vs. legal. I cannot locate any setting on the scanner itself, or in the HP Utility software to change this, or even to be able to identify the current setting, if it is one.
I am using a Mac Pro, system 10.6.8, just installed and started using the printer a couple of days ago, and everything is up to date software-wise. Everything else on this machine has been working beautifully.
Can anyone identify what's going on here and how to correct it?
Thanks for your help--I specifically chose this particular unit over the next model down due to the legal sized glass/bed, and if I can't use it to scan legal docs, well, that's a problem. Thanks for your help!

Hello,
Please try the following steps:
1. Open the HP Utility and select your device.
2. From Scan Settings open the "Scan to Computer".
3. Click the "Scan Tasks" tab.
4. Select the Scan Shortcut used to scan, then click Edit.
5. In the section of Scan from an HP Device click on the blue triangle to enlarge the menu.
6. From the enlarged menu now open the drop-down menu next to Crop To and set as None.
7. Click OK and try scanning again.
Please let me know of any change,

Hi file hunter,
If you have PDF document attached with your email and you are using windows.
First try right click on any PDF document and choose option Openwith --> Choose default Program.. browse for Reader/ Acrobat. That should help.
Or click the attachment and once you try open it that should ask you to choose application open with if you haven't opened PDF document before.

Scanning legal size document on HP 6520

How do I scan a legal size document on my new HP Photosmart 6520? Glass size is letter size. Is there a document feeder above the paper tray? Not working so far. Thank you.

Hello kurebeach1,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand you would like to do legal size scanning on your HP Photosmart 6520. After checking the HP Photosmart 6520 Product Specifications, the biggest scanning size is 8.5 x 11inches, the PS 6520 does not support legal size scanning.
See image below:
I hope this answers your question!
Thank you,

LASERJET 100 MFP M175MW scanning legal size document problem

I am on a Macbook Pro, running OS X 10.8.5. I am also using the HP Scan software 4.0.
I am having problems scanning a Legal Size document. It always cuts off the bottom portion, acting like it was only us letter size.
After loading a document onto my scanner/printer:
I open the HP Scan software,
Select the Scan Button
Change the Crop to US Legal in the dropdown area.
Continue
Then when I look at the image scanned in, it is not complete.
Is there something else I need to do to make this work, maybe a setting on the actual scanner/printer.
I have tried to read all support documentation possible and I cannot get this to work. I even updated all my operating systems upgrades, but I am not running Maverick yet.
I would be thankful for any help at all.
Thanks!

@MAMAC4
To my knowledge the only way you can scan legal is from the ADF, have you tried that? If you are trying to scan legal sizs docs from the flatbed than you will experience the cut off that you are stating in your post.
Please try to re-scan the document using your ADF feeder and see if this will solve your issue.
Thank you.

I am trying to scan a legal size document from my Canon printer onto my MacBookPro. It scans the document as a letter size.

I am having trouble scanning a legal size document from my Canon printer onto my MacBookPro. I have set the printer paper size option to legal size on my printer. The scanned document comes through as a letter size document after scanning. I do not see an option in iPhoto to change the paper size.
Can anyone advise?
Thanks.

Experience has taught me that it pays to be very precise and specific when dealing with computers. Precisely and specifically, what you describe is impossible. It is impossible to scan a document (of any size) with a printer.
I surmise that you are using an all-in-one, ie, an apparatus which combines a printer, a scanner, and sometimes a fax machine, in the same device. That takes us to the next step -- the page size set for printing is used for printing -- it has nothing to do with scanning. It may be possible that Canon provides software which synchronises page sizes used for printing and for scanning, but we don't know what applications and drivers you are using…

How do i combine single pages into documents with Adobe?

How do i combine single pages into documents with Adobe?

Hi zebideeplus,
Using Reader, you need to purchase subscription for Adobe PDF Pack to combine PDF files into single document.
Refer: Acrobat.com Help | Adobe PDF Pack FAQ
But, if you need to combine single pages, then it can be done with Adobe Acrobat only.
Let me know if you have further queries.

Hey there @jadoue , welcome to the forums!
Yes, you can scan a PDF as legal size and save it. Check out the screen shot I posted below as an example of what you are looking for in the printer software that is installed on your computer.
Let me know if you have any other questions!

Hello, how can i modifie in the options, aplications, Adobe acrobat document, open with Adobe acrobat (in Firefox) instead of open with portable document format (default). Thanks

I can'T open pdf links in another page, because in options, aplications i have in Adobe acrobat documents open with portable document format (default) and i must put open with Adobe Acrobat (in firefox) default.
Where can i change the default?

All you now have to do is use that variable to the value property of your text field... So add this at the end of your code:
this.getField("Conference_Option").value = ConferenceOpportunity;
Also, I would use MouseUp, not MouseDown.

Cannot sign documents with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 - 10.1.10, Can sign document with 10.1.2 and 11.0.07

Cannot sign documents with Adobe Reader 10.1.3 - 10.1.10, Can sign document with 10.1.2 and 11.0.07
In my environment, we have 10.1.2 that's currently packaged. Our CIO was able to sign documents via signature with no problem. Later he got updated to 10.1.9, no longer can sign.
During testing I was able to confirm that 10.1.2 signed without problems, but anything that, it goes kaput, the Sign and options are not listed.
Latest Adobe Reader can sign... any ideas?

I'm having a similar problem. What I'm trying to do is print a Microsoft Word 2010 document with paper size A4 to Adobe pdf document paper size A4. I select "A4" for paper size in word and then print using Adobe print standard settings. What I get is an Adobe document in 8.5 x 11. This is an issue because these are patent documents for electronic filing in WIPO and they must be in A4 size.
If I select other sizes in Word, such as A3, Tabloid, and Legal, the Adobe file is in the same paper size.
If I print a Powerpoint document in A4 to Adobe, the Adobe file page size is A4.
If I print an Adobe file in 8.5 x11 to Adobe A4, the second Adobe file is in A4.
Any help?

Scanning legal size on Pro 8610 printer

I have tried everything and can not scan legal size on this printer. It does not have a setting gear icon after you push print like it does when you push print. If you use the feeder on top it does not automatically detect the size, it always scans letter size. This HP printer has been the most frutrating printer I have ever had. I continually disconnects from my computer, I constantly have to reload it with the disk. I cannot initiate that scan from my computer so that I can select legal, because it wont set up. Frustrated, can anyone help me? Thanks

Hi, No, it does not know. You have to tell is to scan legal size. Please use option from your computer: Regards.
