Hi,
I have a 136 page book set to go to print, the printer needs a PDF file with the pages at 6"w X 9"h. No problem. I've used several different PDF converters, set the postscript custom page size to 6x9, and invariably, I get output on 8.5 X 11..... Now, my margins are set at: Top: .7 Sides: .5 Bottom: .5 Header/Footer: .3 Gutter: .2 The margins are mirrored for making this a perfect bound book. When I start the conversion, I get a notice telling me that my margins in each of the books 4 sections are outside the pages printable area. Is this the cause of the mis-sized PDF output? Any thoughts for a fix or work-around? This thing neds to go to bed pronto, so I'd appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks, Joseph |

FWIW, when I sent copy to a printer for a 6"x9" book, I had it set up on
8.5" x 11" (with appropriate margins) because that's what my desktop printer can print (and he wanted hard copy as well as the PDF). He handled the conversion of my 8.5" x 11" PDF to the size he needed. -- Suzanne S.
