Set Page Boxes dialog box overview
Use the Set Page Boxes dialog box (formerly called Crop Pages) to define boundaries for trim, bleed, and art when
preparing your PDF for printing and other output. You can adjust the margins of document boxes supported by Adobe
PDF, including the media (page size), trim, bleed, and art boxes. This capability is useful if the printer marks you add
using the Add Printer Marks tool (not the Marks And Bleeds panel of the Advanced Print Setup dialog box) would be
clipped because the crop box is too small to accommodate the marks. Print service providers can also use this tool to
expand the page size for imposition tasks.
You can switch between boxes without losing the margins you set for each. As you adjust individual boxes, the preview
in the Set Page Boxes dialog box is redrawn to reflect the new settings. For example, if you expand the crop or media
box, the page content “shrinks” in the preview.
Note: When the crop box is expanded, the media box adjusts accordingly.
