Select “Unit and Guides” and alter the layout to the desired grid spacing. If you don’t like the default grid, you can change the options by selecting “Edit…Preferences”.

The view menu highlighting the rulers command. In version 9, turn on the ruler by selecting “View…Rulers” as shown in the screen shot below. In Adobe Acrobat X Pro, turn on the rulers by selecting “View…Show/Hide…Rulers&Grids…Rulers” or + R.
