In Acrobat Pro DC, Adobe introduced a new scaling feature in the Preflight tool. All previous versions of Acrobat had to offer was the crop tool, and it’s “Change Page Size” option to either crop out a portion of the page, or to make the page size larger, but in both cases, the size of the page content was not changed. 5×7″ to Letter size, or form A4 to A5 by changing both the page size, and scaling the page content to fit the new page size.
