Change page size and cant adjust pagecolor to same size

In pages I selecte a standard sjablone and I adjusted the papersize from A4 to A3. In the standardform there was a paper color and I liked it but I want to resize it to the new size.
How can I do this?
Thanks!

Well I am having this exact issue.
I have seen many posts in other areas of this discussion and online elsewhere. As it goes, Adobe is going to get sued for this.
I paid for a working feature of the software in CS6. Simply releasing a new version and forcing the user to pay for a fix to a problem in an old version is not lawful business. It's extorsion. They did not uphold their end of the bargain on the contract of me paying for a working product.
The owness is on them now to fix the bugs in the current versions of broken software.

Introduce left/top margin: Change Page Size ignored

I have a vector drawing of a technical schematic in PDF. The drawing is an extract of a much larger schematic, so it is very small: 2.2" by 1.648". However, when I print it out, it is resized to fill up a Letter size paper (8.5" by 11") and the size is then perfect for viewing. Also, the PDF has no white space around the edges, so the same PDF is perfect for importing into documentation packages.
However, for hard copy printing, depending on the exact aspect ratio of the drawing, I will sometimes want to introduce white space along one edge for hole-punching purposes. I am opening the PDF and printing it from Acrobat 8 Professional. I cannot use Document->Cropping because I am trying to introduce a margin rather reduce an existing margin. I tried using the Change Page Size controls in the cropping dialog panel. Originally, it was set to Fixed Sizes and Page Sizes was set to None. I selected Custom instead of Fixed Sizes, then I entered in the Width and Height in inches, with the Height being about 0.5" more than the original 1.648" (it's landscape, so the holes will be at the top). However, the illustrative diagram does not change, and neither do the dimensions shown on it. I click OK and the PDF as viewed did not change -- no white space. When I go back into the Change Paper Size dialog, all the size data that I entered is gone and the control have reverted back to Fixed Size with a Page Size of None. I explored the dropdown list for Page Sizes, and none of them are appropriate for such a small diagram.
What I'm trying to achieve is a pretty simple effect, and I thought it would be straightforward. It has to be *very* simple as I expect to do this regularly. Is there actually a way? Ideally, it doesn't involve calculating all sorts of bounding boxes and offsets. Who knows what the assumed reference points for those are. In fact, the most direct way would be to enter a negative Margin Controls in the Crop Margins region of the dialog. That is not possible, of course.

Actually, I found a way. The reason why the page size was being ignored is because the numbers were too small. If I enter a big enough number, it sticks. It would be nice to get a message to that effect though.......sigh.
I can then adjust the cropping margins to get the gutter.
Thanks.

Cannot change page size with acrobat

I am able to convert my manuscript in Mac word(2011) to adobe acrobat (XI); unfortunately the 6 X 9 " page size does not convert. I spent a few hours on the phone with adobe support and the final resolution was to upload the file to them and they converted it for me. however, they used distiller which reduced the file size and appears to have affected the many images. Does anyone have any advice? The best I have been able to glean online is work with inDesign to change page size.

Thanks.
The problem was with the paper size. In addition to change the page size I needed to change the paper size in the print option before selecting save Adobe PDF.
From Word go to File> Print
Open the Copies & Pages dropdown
Select Paper Handling
Check the Scale to fit paper size box
Open the Destination Paper Size list
Select your custom 6x9 Preset
Click the PDF button
Select either Save as PDF or Save as Adobe PDF
The unfortunate thing is that I was able to do this initially, but when I went back to replicate it adobe is creating 2 files one with my cover page and the rest to the manuscript. Luckily my initial copy was good. Thanks again for your help.

Change page size in Acrobat Pro 6.0

Hello, I'm wondering if there's a way to change page sizes in Acrobat Pro 6.0 for Windows. We are receiving manuscripts which have been assembled from various documents. They're going to be printed at 8.5 x 11, but sometimes some of the pages are 7 x 10. Is there an automated way to change all the 7 x 10 pages to 8.5 x 11? We don't want to have to do each page individually because there are too many of them.
Many thanks,
Coral

You could try printing to a new PDF with the PDF printer, setting the page size to 8.5 x 11 and setting the page scaling option to 'Fit to Printable Area'. This will hopefully leave the existing 8.5 x 11 ones about the same size (it may shrink them slightly) and scale the other sizes.

XI Pro: How to change page size?

I have a letter-sized document where each page has extremely large margins and text in a tiny font size. Can I use the 'Remove White Margins' function (Crop pages > Set Page Boxes) to remove the large margins and then resize what remains back to 8.5" x11" using the 'Change Page Size' function?
When I try this, I can do the first step and I'm left with pages about 5.5"x8". But the Change Page Size function does not allow me to resize the page.
It this possible?

Hi J Kart,

Possible to enlarge white space by changing page size?

Greetings. I'm using Acrobat 10 pro now, but in 9 it was possible to enlarge the white space around the text by changing the page size as part of the crop command. This was very handy for creating an area large enough for text box comments. I can't find this capability in 10. Am I, hopefully, mistaken?

Select: Tools > Pages > Crop
and then double-click on the page. You'll then get the Crop dialog and you can select a larger page size in the CHange Page Size area.

my daughter changed her password and cant remember it and now the ipod is diasbled what should i do

Providing she regularly synced her iPod, her purchases should be in her iTunes library. If this is the case, then you can simply reset her iPod and put all of her data back on it although I don't know if this works with apps. If she synced it before she reset the pass word then you can stop the auto sync, restore, and put the back up on it. If all else falls, iTunes and the App store remember purchases so you can't buy the same thing twice, well at least I haven't. I hope you find this helpful, and good luck getting her iPod back into usable condition.

Changing Page Size and Margins for existing document

Hi, really new at using InDesign and have a question.
I have an existing document about 40 pages containing text and graphics.
I need to change the page size from the original 8x10 to 8.5x11 as well as change the left margin from 0.5" to 1"
If I simply change these in File>Document Setup and Layout>Margins will everything change and convert?
Or put another way will I have to move everything around on all the pages once the new sizes are input?
Thanks!

You may get different advice from someone else, but if you want to make a global change like this to an existing file, I think the easiest way is to use the Layout Adjustment feature which has been deprecated in favor of Liquid Layout, and is now hidden away in the Liquid Layout panel flyout menu.
In order for it to work, two things must be true BEFORE you make changes to the file: Layout Adjustment must be turned on, and the text frames must be fully snapped to the existing margin guides, so you may have to adjust the margins BEFORE you make other changes so they surround the frmaes with no gaps.
Once margins are correct and Layout Adjustment is enabled, you can change the page size in Document Setup, then go to your master page and from the Layout menu choose Margins and Columns and reset the margins to whatever you like. The change should be reflected in all pages to which that master is applied, and your frames snapped to the old margins should change size/shape to remain snapped to the new ones.

Change page size and get error on Booklet. Why?! Only in CS6...

Why when we are working with a material of many pages, and all pages have the same measure, and alter the size of each page (in File -> Document Setup), we can no longer generate booklets? I was tested in version CS5 and it worked perfectly in version CS6 gives error:
"The active document uses multiple pages sizes. Booklet Print works only with documents That use consistent page size."
I've checked all pages and it all have identical size between them.
Take a test.
Open a new file with multiple pages. Try to create a booklet. Will function properly. After this, go to File -> Size and change the page size of the pages. Now try to create a booklet. Will give error.
I tested in a couple of macs...

Change Page Size Equally

I'm working on a book that is 130 pages. It needs to print regualry (offset) and also needs to print digitally at a slightly reduced size -- original size is 6.5 x 9.25 in. The digital size will be 6.125 x 9.25. I know how to change a page size, but when I change the width the reduced size comes off the outside of each page (book is setup with facing pages). The client wants each page to remain exactly as is in the original book size (just with copy and images centered on the new page size) so I can't use Layout adjustment. Is there any way to control the reduction of page size so that the change in width comes off both sides of the page (which would save me the time of having to recenter everything)?
Any suggestions appreciated (File is in CS5)
Jeff

Without checking, these three simple options come to mind:
Change the document from facing pages and make the width change, change back to facing -
Export to pdf and crop the pages in Acrobat -
Create a second document and place the original 130 ID pages into that, offset -.125.
I would use the third option as it would always reflect the live changes to the original.

Places the whole 130 page ID file into a new file.

How to change page size from A5 to A4 in CS3

How do I change the pagesize of my booklet from A5 to A4 - basically I just want to blow the whole thing up a notch...
I've tried to activate automatic layout adjust and then changing document settings but the result is scattered objects that are still the same size as on A5 - too small and strangely placed...
What do I do?

A fast trick is to export the document to PDF and then place this into a new A4 document, scaled up to fit the page.[*]
InDesign can resize most stuff, but you will still get tiny differences in the text because of spacing, uneven rounding, etc. Layout Adjustment is meant as a shortcut to change margins in an existing document; but it's by no means perfect. It does not
i scale
text or images; it changes the margins and placement of objects only.
[*] With CS3, you can try placing the original CS3 document into a new one (as images). That would make corrections a bit easier.

Change page size in PDF (Acrobat 9)

I have created a PDF file and under document properties it says that the default page size is 11.69 x 8.26 in. I want to change this to A3, but cannot find the option or any help on this.
The PDF was created using the PDF printer from an application that normally only prints to A3. This created a separate PDF file for each sheet of the document, which I then combined using the combine option in Acrobat.
Any thoughts?
Thanks
Alan

I have created a PDF file and under document properties it says that the default page size is 11.69 x 8.26 in.
Where did you see default page size? I can see only page size.

Change page size for PostScript file?

Hi,
While trying to stream Java2D objects to a PostScript file using Java Printing API, I found I couldn't change the page size, it always gives me ISO_A4 size. In the following modifed sample from printing doc, even if I changed the book's page size and printer media size attribute, it still gave me ISO_A4 size.
thanks for your help
