PDF Page Box Considerations
•The PDF Boxes allow you to perform an “automated crop” by using a box defined within the PDF, rather than tailoring a workflow specific to an input document type. You can use the PDF boxes to meet specific job
•The PDF Media box option is not supported in imposition, but you can create an equivalent during imposition via the Paper Stock setting. The PDF Media Box describes the whole area of the PDF document including gutters and trim areas. All other box definitions are
•The Trim, Bleed and Art boxes must be smaller than the Crop Box. Box edges defined in the input document that are beyond the corresponding crop box edge are limited to the crop box edge during imposition.
•You can select which of the four supported PDF boxes to be used for positioning and autofit. Note that the PDF page is not clipped by the selected box unless margins are applied. Enabling autofit will cause the selected box to scale to fit the sheet cell it is being imposed into. PDF page data may bleed outside of the selected box into any sheet cell waste- space created during autofit scaling as long as it does not intrude into a neighboring imposition cell.
•Bleeds beyond the selected PDF box are disabled if any margins are applied.
•From the perspective of downstream workflow components, page size in the output document is the selected paper stock upon which the input document is imposed.
PDF Page Box Limitations
•There is no support for Media Boxes.
•Bleed, Trim, and Art boxes must be smaller than or equal to the defined Crop box.
•Box offsets in the input document do not carry over into the imposed output document – all offsets are set at 0 in the output document.
•You can make PDF box definitions unique on a
