I'm trying to place a PDF cover to edit it. Using "show import options". Back cover and spine is also on the cover page of the PDF (first page). The problem is that I can not place the whole front-back-spine cover. In the preview the back and spine cover is visible (image attached).

From Options>Crop-to:

Bounding Box (visible layers only)
Bounding Box (all layers)
Crop
Media

are available.

I see you're trying to Place the file to edit it?

You cannot edit Placed links, they are inserted as links and non-editable.

It's a PDF you are placing - the best bet to make changes is to edit the source file.

Another thing to look at is how many pages are actually in the PDF. It might be multiple pages displayed as a single spread.

Setting the Crop To: menu to Media should do it.

In case it matters, you won't be able to "edit" it, per se.
