Resizing pages in Adobe Acrobat Pro

Resizing pages in Adobe Acrobat Pro I am using Acrobat Professional 8 to assemble a document from two imported page images (JPGs). Acrobat seems to interpret the images at screen resolution, and creates a document that's about 35" by 46" instead of 8.5" x 11". How can I scale down the page size within Acrobat?

Format page size A5 in Adobe Acrobat X: Start - Control Panel - Printer & faxes - Adobe PDF (Distiller) - Preferences - Adobe PDF Settings - Paper Name = A5 (type with blank after A5) - when Add/Modify.

Using Adobe Acrobat Pro v10.1.4. Had a request to insert jpgs into a pdf file so that they were full page in the pdf. Some of the jpgs were quite small. Opened the jpg, choose Print - select Full Page - deselect fit to frame - print to Adobe pdf file. Go to Acrobat, create pdf from file(s), select (all) the pdf files created from the jpg(s) - Open - Save

I found the easiest way to do this is to export the .pdf to another program such as PowerPoint or Word and resave the resultant .pptx or .docx file as a .pdf. This took my 7.5 x 10 .pdf to an 8.5 x 11 in pretty much 10 seconds.
