JM1 Posted June 24, 2024 Posted June 24, 2024 I am trying to embed PDFs created in a CAD program in a Publisher Document. A lot of these PDFs are empty space. In InDesign I can move edges of the PDFs to crop the PDF to the actual content without resizing. Everything I have tried in Publisher resizes. Is there some way to adjust the border of a PDF without resizing the content? Quote
walt.farrell Posted June 24, 2024 Posted June 24, 2024 In the Context Toolbar you should have several options for Page Box. Have you investigated those? Alternatively, have you tried the Crop Tool? 20240624-1823-16.0797325.mp4 JM1 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU.

Everything I have tried in Publisher resizes. Use a Picture Frame in APub + place the PDF inside. (ID uses a kind of picture frame by default) JM1 1 Quote • MacBookPro Retina 15" | macOS 10.14.6 | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 • iPad 10.Gen. | iOS 18.5. | Affinity V2.6
JM1 Posted June 27, 2024 Author Posted June 27, 2024 The crop tool did the job. The crop tool is more intuitive than Adobe's way of doing things. Unfortunately, I was used to Abode's way of doing things. Thanks Quote
