Scanning Problems

Hi, everyone. Whenever I create a PDF from scanner, the image always comes out small (when I set the page size to automatic). Of course, on my screen I can zoom in, and its fine. However, when I send the document to anyone else and they print it, it prints tiny. I've tried adjusting the page size to standard letter, but then it comes out too huge and only fits about a fourth of the page in the image. Does anyone have any suggestions?

When you say "create a PDF from scanner" - what ius the workflow ? Do you begin in Acrobat, then go under the File menu, then select Create PDF > from Scanner - can you pick the TWAIN interface (this should then expose the settings)Perhaps you need to install the scanner drivers ?
