Page Attributes lost when opening Photoshop-generated pdf in Acrobat

I've created a tabloid-sized document in Photoshop CS3 (Mac) and saved it as a PDF. When I (or my local service bureau) attempt to open it in Acrobat Professional(8.0) it opens as an 8.5X11 document. There appears to be no way to get the document to save the page atributes info so that it's available to Acrobat. (If I open the pdf in Photoshop or Canvas its page attributes appear properly as Tabloid) Why is this happening and is there anything I can do about it

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8, Macintosh

This problem sounds a bit unusual. It just might be the printer driver assignment in Photoshop. I'd start there and see if it corrects the problem.

In Photoshop CS3 open the Page Setup dialog box and choose the Adobe PDF 8.0 printer driver. Click OK and try to save the file as a Photoshop PDF document. See if this works for you. If not, add another post and let's see if we can run down the problem.
