Placing an APu document in an APu document?


Joachim_L

Recommended Posts

Is this covered somewhere or am I too stupid (no serious answers please)?

Yes, it is possible to place an APu document in an APu document (embedded or linked). But how do I place an APu document with facing pages? First spread of the document is no problem, but what about spread 2-3? Page 2 places fine, but I cannot select page 3. To display page 3 I have to double the size of the image, switch from MediaBox to TrimBox and crop page 2. Is there an improvement to come or is it a bug?

I'm not sure if I'm seeing the same thing you are, or something different.

I see the complete spread when I place spread 2-3:

If I only want one of them I simply have to use the Crop Tool, and that could be made easier by allowing me to select a single page from the spread, rather than just selecting the spread itself.

Just a guess: You see the complete spread 2-3 because your page 1 is empty. Put some content on page 1, save and place again.

Arggglll. Seems to be my document causing this "bug". A new documents works as it should be (but cropping is still extra work). Sorry for this confusion.
