> a) Is there a way I could have done the edit in Acrobat?
Doubtful.
> b) Is there a way I could persuade Acrobat or Illustrator to not shrink the second page?
Deselect the "shrink to fit" (or is it now called "shrink to printable
area"? I forget at the moment and don't have it handy) option when
declaring page size.
> c) Is modern Illustrator any better at this than the ancient Illustrator CS that I've got?
Possibly.
> HINT: A convincing option "c" would help me to justifying an upgrade... ahem...
d) "My tools are old and ill-fit for this work. I need an upgrade. Oh,
and when Bob comes back from Mexico, kick him in the butt for me."
