But either way, it seems like it`s a problem that your default page setup is set to letter size, not legal size. However, if this is the case, scanning a page (on any legal-sized sheet) is the best way forward. Is it possible to share a screenshot of the custom scan screen? To share the screenshot, see forums.adobe.com/docs/DOC-7043#jive_content_id_How_do_I_attach_a_screenshot Otherwise, try an office store or public library to see if they can scan documents in legal size. Does anyone know how to scan a letter document in Adobe? Again, I don`t want to go through the process of using a custom scan. The computer/application is legal by default for some reason. Thank you for letting me know your scanning background, it helps me know what your background is. Even if you are scanning a photocopy (?) or something else, scan at least 300ppi. Here`s also a blog I wrote for Adobe that includes additional information about scanning documents: I have the same problem. My scanner has a page size of 11×14 by default. When I try to change the default settings under Custom Scan, all the fields are grayed out and I can`t select any of the drop-down boxes I have to scan many legally sized pages. When I scan them, Acrobat Pro writes them in letter-sized PDFs. How do I configure Acrobat to create legal-sized pages? photosbycoyne.com/Gary`s_Help/Scanning/clean-scanning.html Is there a way in Acrobat to force the scanned legal size into a letter-sized PDF file? Are you on a Mac or PC? If you`re using a Mac, scan with Apple`s Image Capture software.
If you are scanning on a PC, use the scanner software. (Acrobat itself has no analytics capabilities.) Yes, you can change these settings permanently. If you are scanning from a preset (for example, the color mode „Auto Detect“, „B&W“, etc.), go once to configure the preset and change the settings of this color mode here. How to change the default settings set as „Letter“ instead of „legal“ for paper size so that each document is scanned when scanning a document in the above size? Below is a process I found that works, but it adds several steps as you have to manually select the size each time a document is scanned. When scanning a large number of documents, these additional steps make it much more time-consuming. So far, the app has scanned all documents in letter format. I don`t know why or how that changed. I want to automatically scan all the documents in the letter without having to select the custom scan option.
Does it cut the bottom or does it make the page small enough (small size) to fit on a standard letter-sized page? OK, I think I know what you`re doing. FWIW, if I did that, I would now scan each page separately during the scanning process. None of this works. I`ve been using Acrobat Pro since its release, and this cloud version is terrible. The default settings are incorrect (Legal size) and all options are grayed out so I can`t access them. I updated the drivers (AGAIN!) on my NEW Dell/Windows 10 computer I purchased last December. I spent hours – at first, just print Adobe, then from a computer on the same network to scan, but only by connecting directly to the printer using a USB data transfer cable from one of the PCs. It does NOT scan from the Brother MFC-9970CDW printer/scanner on the shared network, although I can print from any of the four computers on the network. I`m using Acrobat Pro 9.3 and an HP Color LaserJet CM2320fxiMFP. Whenever I scan a document in letter format, the legal size always stands out.

Well, is your scanner long enough for all the paper to fit into the legal size? I assumed it was because you didn`t mention any restrictions, but now I have concerns. If your scanner is in letter size, you cannot scan paper in legal format. If your scanner is too small to scan your legal-sized document in a single pass, you can scan it in two or more passes and combine the scans in Word, InDesign, or another program, and then export it to a new PDF file. In any case, you need to set the size/dimentions of the scanning process to the allowed size and not to the size of the letter. I looked for it and it should be able to work with legal sites. I used a mass document scanner for several weeks a few years ago, but not since. I don`t remember the details of how to adjust the page size. If I remember correctly, it was quite automatic.
If I inserted a bunch of 8″ high documents, it gave me 8″ high PDFs. It was with a FujiScan. You`re not sure if this is exactly what you need, but you can select „Collapse to Printable Area“ in the Print dialog box and the legal PDF file will be printed in 8 1/2 x 11 format.

Sorry for the late response and inconvenience caused. According to the description above, you cannot change the default settings under Custom Scan because the fields are grayed out. You can do this in Acrobat, but that involves making a copy of the image, taking the first one and cropping it on page 1, and then taking the 2nd and cropping it on page 2. (This is done through Edit Pages, and note that after each crop, double-click the cropped area to set the crop.) – File > Create > PDF from the scanner > Set up the preset (e.g.
auto-detect color mode) A desktop store like Staples can do this for you for a small fee, bring a flash drive so they can put it on. There were fewer parameters to adjust in the scan settings/properties, but everything seemed fine.
