Why Two Sets of Crop Marks?

My InDesign files are printing and rendering PDF's with two sets of crop marks - never had this problem before.

I have bleed set up in Document Setup - 0.125".

I end up with an innner and outer set of crop marks - very strange.

How did this happen and what am I overlooking?

Thanks!

What worked for me [if you just want to use the bleeds you set up when creating the document].

1. When exporting, uncheck everything but "Crop Marks" in the "Marks" section.

2. Leave "Use Document Bleed Settings" selected.

Those are bleed and trim.

Uncheck the Bleed Marks in the export Adobe PDF dialogue box, under Marks and Bleeds.
