Can I increase the page size in an existing PDF?

We have a PDF of a CAD drawing from a consultant. The problem is, the page size is letter, and we need it to be tabloid to accommodate a section of General Notes and a Cost Estimate table. We would rather not go back to the consultant both from a cost standpoint and from a time standpoint.
Is it possible to increase the page size within the PDF so that I have some blank space at top or bottom for the needed blocks?
I am using Adobe Acrobat X Pro.
Thanks!

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?

How can I change the page size of a scanned PDF document?
I scanned a 50-page document with an HP 5610xi All-In-One using the software that comes with it: HP Scan Pro. Though the physical document has standard 8.5" x 11" pages, the PDF resulting from scanning has page size set to 35.42 × 48.67 inches (according to Preview's "Tools > Inspector". I want to resize the pages to 8.5" x 11". Shouldn't Preview be able to do that with "Tools > Adjust Size..."? When I try, the menu option is grey so I can't select it.
I'm using Preview Version 4.2.

Thanks for the insight; that explains why it's the wrong size. I selected 300dpi scanning (which is the default, actually), but HP Scan Pro evidently created a PDF with 72dpi indicated. I want it fixed because I want to distribute the file to other people and have them able to print or display it without problems.
I still don't know why Preview won't let me change it, but your question about whether I wanted to print it did lead me to find a workaround: "File > Print" and "Save as PDF..." saved it with the correct page size.

How can I change the page size in an existing layout?

I have an 8.5x11 layout that I need to change to 8x10 without starting over again… Help?

If you just need to change the size of the page, go to File > Document Setup
Check out the Layout Adjustment feature as well -- it will make things
that are close to margins cling to the margins if the doc is resized.
But if you want to simply scale the entire document and everything
that's in it to the new size, check out:

How can I increase the font size of my email when I print it out, it is printing tiny

How can I increase the font size when I print out emails, it is printing tiny size?

In the Print dialog window, click the small reveal-button to the right of the printer's name -
The window will expand to show additional settings (similar to 'old' Page Setup) -
Be sure "Scale:" is set to 100% and the 'Keep apparent font size' item is checked.

Paragraph breaks are good for readability. ;-)
Have you noticed any difference between your MacBook and others at the Apple store? Wondering whether this is a configurable setting at the system level, i.e., DPI.
You can default Firefox to a larger zoom level to avoid having to zoom every page. You'll still be able to adjust the size for individual sites as needed. It sounds as though you are aware of these add-ons:
* Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
* NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
There are some discussions about changing coming in Firefox 22 (I think) to address higher density displays like the Retina display. So perhaps there will be a built-in setting to address this in the future.

After you increase the page size with Ctrl/plus, is there a way to keep the new setting?

''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/845611]''
My new laptop has great features but a smaller screen. Changing the resolution makes everything look awful. Using Ctrl/plus to increase the page size in Firefox solves the problem, but you lose the new setting when you go to a different page. Is there a way to keep the new setting until you reverse it with Ctrl/minus ?

There are some add-ons that can be used to change the zoom level on all sites, for example:
* NoSquint - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint
* Default FullZoom Level - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level

How can I increase the font size of just one paragraph?

I am using Dreamweaver CS4. I want to increase the font size and style of just one paragraph, but the "page properties" changes the font size for the whole page. In this regard: how can I increase the font size (and style) for just one word. Thank you, Mr. Monroe

How do I get to “CSS Properties”? Do I click on Window > CSS Styles?
When I click on Window > CSS Styles, I do not see the text “Custom Class.”
I tried inserting (manually) the HTML code you suggested for the paragraph I want to change and nothing happened. I tried [<span class=”16px”>text came in here</span)]
I read in a tutorial that after you create a CSS style sheet, all you have to do is select the text you want to apply it to and then attach the style sheet to that text. I can imagine, however, that there are some special steps that one has to perform in order to do this.
Thanks for your help.
Mr. Monroe

From the Safari menu bar click View > Zoom In or press Command + on the keyboard to increase the size of the page.
If that doesn't help, open System Preferences > Accessibilty > Settings then select Zoom on the left.
You can also increase the resolution on the dislplay. System Preferences > Displays > Display > Scaled
You can also get help by posting in the Apple Support Communities > Vision forum here.

How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

How can I change the page size of a pdf so i can view it on my iphone more clearly?

I think there may be more to this question than you say.
If your PDF page is say, 8 x 12 inches, and you found a way to scale it to 25%, changing it to 2 x 3 inch, shrinking everything on the page to quarter size - wouldn't it look exactly the same on the iPhone? It's just going to be the same as zooming.
Or were you hoping for something more like in Word, where changing the page size keeps everything the same size and spreads it over more pages? That isn't something you can do.

HT4863 How can I increase the file size limit for outgoing mail. I need to send a file that is 50MB?

How can I increase the file size limit for outgoing mail. I need to send a file that is 50MB?

You can't change it, and I suspect few email providers would allow a file that big. Consider uploading it to a service like Dropbox, then email the link allowing the recipient to download it.

How can we increase the font size in Adobe Bridge CC 2014?

How can we increase the font size in Adobe Bridge CC 2014?
We use Windows 7 64bit computers and Dell High Density UltraSharp UP2414Q monitors with a resolution of 3840 x 2160.
Other applications in Adobe CC 2014 work fine with this high resolution (Indesign, Photoshop) but I can't find where to adjust font size in Bridge.
Right now menu items are hardly ledgible.

Same problem. Bridge is unusable with this micro font and no way to change it.
I would call tech support but I don't feel like being on hold for two hours to talk to someone Adobe pays pennies a day in a loud call center who won't be able to help anyway. Fail.

Can i divide the page size like 50%where two regions should appear

Hai..
Can i divide the page size like 50%where two regions should appear, and in another 50% one more reion should apper ...
how can i do that
Thanks
Anoo

Anoo,
Are you talking about two regions side-by-side? You could try applying "Reports Region 100% Width" report template on both regions, and making the 2nd region having Column 2. This way both will display side-by-side with 100% width.

After Firefox was updated, the font size on my screen was decreased for all applications. How can I increase the font size on my screen ??

After the update, the next screen showed all the letters in smaller font, with fewer pixels. All the screens are like that now and I found nothing in the Firefox help contents. This is a problem because I have vision difficulty. So, how can I increase the font size to what it was before? My screen is about 20 inches wide.
Also, any chance I can change all the font to Arial instead of Times New Roman?

Thanks -- that does help!

How can I increase the thumbnail size when using Safari to upload an image to a website?

I upload many images to multiple websites and when using Safari to upload these images, the thumbnails are so small I can barely make out what the image is. I can easily figure out how to increase the thumbnail size when viewing them in Finder and set the default to my liking, but I cannot seem to find a way to do this in Safari. The last topic I saw on this was form 2013 and have not seen any update. Is there a way to do this?

Delete all unused, invisible layers.
Sometimes zip compression is better than jpg compression (in the pdf output settings). Zip is lossless, and works better with non gradient colour or no images.
Flattening the image before you save it to pdf can reduce the file size if you are using jpg compression.
Post a preview of your pdf and we can comment further on how to reduce the file size.
