TIP Use the generic CLIP on page 341 command to clip images, external references,
viewports, and underlays.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
On
Turns on clipping and displays the PDF underlay clipped to the previously
defined boundary.
Off
Turns off clipping and displays the entire PDF underlay and frame.
If you re-clip the PDF underlay while clipping is turned off, clipping is
automatically turned back on. You are prompted to delete the old boundary
even when clipping is turned off and the clipping boundary is not visible.
Delete
Removes a predefined clipping boundary and displays the full original
underlay.
New Boundary
Defines a rectangular or polygonal clipping boundary, or generates a polygonal
clipping boundary from a polyline.
Select Polyline Defines the boundary with the selected polyline. The polyline
can be open but must consist of straight line segments and cannot intersect
itself.
Polygonal Defines a polygonal clipping boundary with three or more points
that you specify for the vertices of a polygon.
Rectangular Defines a rectangular boundary with the points that you specify
for opposite corners.
Invert Clip Inverts the mode of the clipping boundary: objects are clipped
either outside the boundary or inside the boundary.
NOTE You can only create a new clipping boundary for a selected PDF underlay
when the old boundary is deleted.
