I'm regularly make PDFs—a lot of them—that need a few fixups done each time, like scale pages to A4, then crop all pages to the bounding box, then reduce file size (though maybe that's a different category than fixup?).
Is it possible to do this with one button (or as few clicks as possible anyway)? I also would like automate the dialog that's kind of a like a Save-As that pops up every time and requires a few more clicks per document—I just want to keep the original filename every time.

Yes, that's exactly what I wanted. Thank you!
My workflow associates this action sequence with currently open documents. I can't seem to select that option in the Action Wizard, though it is available when I do the fixups individually. Is there any way to apply the actions to all open documents?

Short answer is no.
Long answer is yes, but it requires some JavaScript development.

Thank you. Sounds a bit over my head. I appreciate the help!
