To resize an image in Adobe Acrobat, you need to select the image and then use the corner handles to adjust its size.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Select the Image: First, click on the image you want to resize.
- Locate Resize Handles: Once the image is selected, you’ll see small square handles at the corners of the image boundary box. These are your resize handles.
- Drag to Resize: Click and hold on one of the corner resize handles. Now, drag the handle inward to reduce the size or drag it outward to enlarge the image.
- Dragging diagonally from a corner handle will maintain the aspect ratio of the image.
- If you do not hold shift while dragging a handle, you can adjust width and height independently, which can lead to distortion.
- Release the Handle: Once the image is at your desired size, release the mouse button. The image will now appear in its new dimensions within the document.
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1 | Select the image you want to resize. |
| 2 | Locate the resize handles on the corners of the image. |
| 3 | Click and drag a corner handle to resize. |
| 4 | Release the handle when the image is the correct size. |
Important Notes:
- The reference explicitly states that you should "select the image, hold the resize corner handles, and then drag the handles in or out to reduce or enlarge the image size." This action is the core to resizing images in Acrobat.
- You can resize an image while holding the Shift key to keep the height/width ratio unchanged.
By following these steps, you can easily resize images within your Adobe Acrobat documents.
