I use an HP 7110 printer/scanner and have used Adobe Acrobat 6 Professional with it perfectly. I upgraded to Professional 8 and when I place a document in the scanner adf, the option of selecting paper size in pro 8 is grayed out and everything I scan to pdf is legal size. How to I fix that?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro 8, Windows

Acrobat 8 has the ability to hide the TWAIN dialog and save steps. Make sure you Click Scanner Options and under User Interface Show Native Interface.

Let me know if that works

That got a few people. It is meant to eliminate a few steps in scanning. IF you are only doing letter sized, hide the native mode.

WOW, how simple as that. Initially, I thought it was a set up function but once I loaded a document and found out thats where I can change it - simple.

Thanks a greta deal!

Tom thanks for the help...I ended up choosing "Document Feed" instead of "Flatbed" and than the box came ungrayed and I was able to choose the correct page size.
