Setting page box defaults for placing files

[Jerry Jenkins]

Hi,  

I import small AI or PDF files in groups of 10 or more to place on pages as linked files. They come in with the page box set to "trim box" which gives me a small object on a large page. I then set them to "maximum content" one at a time, which is inefficient. Is there a way to either set the default page box for import to "maximum content" or to change the page box setting for a group of files all at once?

Thanks,

J.

Hi Jerry!

Unfortunately, as far as I know, it's not possible to set this as a default setting, or change the option for multiple documents at once, my apologies.

I'll move this thread to the feedback section of our forums now, for our devs to see and consider implementing this in the future

Dan, Thank you very much. I am switching, with pleasure, to Publisher, after 20 years of book design on INF and others.These forums are, for me, the key to the change over.

I'm very glad to hear this, I certainly agree that we have a wonderful community here

Should you have any further questions, please don't hesitate to add them here if relevant, or start a new thread!

I'm facing the same problem, but I'm working with a document which contains hundreds of embedded PDF graphics and it annoys me so much.

Hopefully one day somebody adds proper option in properties
