Why when I scan an 8.5X11 document is the resulting pdf 8.5X11.7?

How can I fix this? I cannot find a document preference setting or default setting. Using Acrobat Pro 9.

You can set the paper size of your scanned document using Custom or Paper size.
To get to this use Create PDF from Scanner.

  • Why when I scan it doesn't import because file already exists, i never scanned it before?

    Why when I scan anything in my Photoshop Elements 8, it tells me that nothing was imported because a file already exists.  I never scanned this photo before?? Please help!

    It could be a file name duplication.  Either the scanner creates some default file name, which it may have used before or you have assigned a duplicate file name.  Try renaming and see if the Organizer imports it.

    Look at your system crash report for your Photoshop crash.  See what module failed.  I its is in you printers driver. See if the is an update available for it.

  • When I scan an A4 document the resulting pdf is cropped - shorter but wider

    when I scan an A4 document the resulting pdf is cropped - shorter but wider. As if it were a US letter size. How can I correct this?

    I've now discovered that problem occurs when I go to 'Create pdf from Scanner' in Acrobat and then, say, just chose 'colour document' or 'black and white' and the scanning then starts.
    If instead I choose 'custom scan' instead, you get a whole new screen up where you can choose your printer, paper size etc. It's noticeable that the default paper size here is set to 'letter'. When I change this to A4, it scans the document fully - kpow problem solved!
    A bit tortuous, but at least I can now scan a whole A4 page properly. There doesn't seem to be a way to change this default from 'letter' such that I don't need to keep going into 'custom scan' every time I want to scan a document. If I could do this, my problems would be truly solved.

  • Why when i tried to attach a document from pages it will send in jpeg not text?

    Why when I tried to attach a document from pages it will send in jpeg(image)?
    How can I attach pages to email in simple text format?

    Possibly.
    You could test that by dropping a largish image into a test Pages document and duplicating it until your document won't send.
    Some eMail clients have ceiling levels for file sizes, as do some receiving servers.
    Also test to see if you can simply export your file to pdf, in which case it will be retained on your iPad. That would be a first step.

  • How to scan both sides of document in color to pdf with the dr-m160?

    how to scan both sides of document in color to pdf with the dr-m160?

    Hi healthynhappy1.
    To scan a 2-sided document, you will need to change the scanner settings in the software. 
    If you are using Capture On Touch:
    You will need to turn off the "Scan in Full Auto" option. 
    Next, you will open [Scanner Settings] and change the "Scanning Side" to Duplex. 
    Verify that the [Color Mode] shows "24-bit Color" and when you get the option to save the file, verify the [File Type] shows as "PDF".
    If you are using CapturePerfect:
    Click [Scan].
    Click [Scanner Settings].
    Change the [Scan Side] to "Duplex".
    Verify that [Color Mode] is set for "Color" and then save the file as "PDF".
    I hope that this information is helpful to you.  Should you need further assistance, please contact us at 1-800-OK-CANON (1-800-652-2666).  Have a great day!

  • I have an iMac(mid2010) running Pages v5.5.1 on OS X 10.10. Why can I not save or share documents. The error message is You can't save the file "TEST.pages" because the volume is read only.

    I have an iMac(mid2010) running Pages v5.5.1 on OS X 10.10. Why can I not save or share documents. The error message is You can’t save the file “TEST.pages” because the volume is read only.
    I get the same message when using Numbers so I presume it is a OS problem

    Some of your user files (not system files) have incorrect permissions or are locked. This procedure will unlock those files and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
    Back up all data before proceeding.
    Step 1
    If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
    Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
    sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
    You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
    Step 2 (optional)
    Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
    Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
              Utilities ▹ Terminal
    from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
    res
    Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
    resetpassword
    Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
    Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
    Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
    Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button
    Select
               ▹ Restart
    from the menu bar.

  • Why when I export photos from I photo to the desk top , and then to a CD they end up as alis  and some are not really there?

    Why when I export photos from I photo to the desk top , and then to a CD they end up as alis  and some are not really there?

    Why? Because of something you are doing wrong - however unless you actually tell us what you are doing - and what version of iPhoto you have - and any other detail that might help no one can even gess.
    Exactly how are you exporting? Are the photos successfully exported to the desktop? How are you moving to the CD? why do you think they are not there?

    Why you can't redownload? Don't you have the Apple ID that used to download these apps?
    You can "transfer purchaces" by right click on your iphone in iTunes but i guess you computer is not authorized and will ask you to authorize with Apple ID. Try it.

  • My e-mail has quit updating.  Anybody know why or how to get it started back?  The result is that I dont get my e-mails on the phone.

    My e-mail has quit updating. Anybody know why or how to get it started back?  The result is that I can not get e-mails on my phone.

    Thank you for the info re. the main menu. Your answer I used worked; however, the menu bar all the way across is solid black. The only way I can find out the names on the menu is to point the cursor from left to right over the black bar to find "file" "edit" tools", etc. What do I need to do to get these menu titles to be seen?
    As regarding the GMail --the menu bar used to have an envelope symbol which was white and outlined in red. That disappeared. I googled "mail.google.com" to try to get back my email. This didn't work. I then tried to get a different email address and password--after 8-19 attempts, this never worked. My other email (sbcglobal.net) has never returned. So I don't know where that went or how to get it back
