Jeremy Bohn Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 See attached screenshot. A placed Design file, twice. On the left the Page Box is set to CropBox. On the right, ArtBox. The file was an Illustrator file originally, then brought into Designer. Pretty much the same thing happens if I place the Ai file directly instead.

ArtBox is that box in Adobe's PDF box model which never got really supported properly. Here's a recent discussion about the boxes and the lack of ArtBox - jump to 5/5/2019 10:14 PM, MikeW macOS 10.14.6 | MacBookPro Retina 15" | Eizo 27" | Affinity V1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted May 8, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 8, 2019 Hi Jeremy, Would you be able to attach the Illustrator file you placed please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Bohn Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 Hi, this is that particular graphic, but there were others doing pretty much the same thing. Made in Illustrator CS6. swoosh.ai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff Sean P Posted May 9, 2019 Staff Share Posted May 9, 2019 Thank you very much, I've reproduced it here with your file. I'll get it passed on to documentation. It's strange, as one of my test PDFs works correctly, but this one and an another one doesn't! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeremy Bohn Posted May 9, 2019 Author Share Posted May 9, 2019 Thanks! This is the second time that I've recreated a file originally from Adobe and I really had to wrack my brain in a few spots to figure out how to achieve the same look. That cropping threw me for a loop - had to try a few different things to manage a workaround. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
