Detect Objects Outside Margins or Artbox?

[Justin28067497sl7x]

Hi all,

Is it possible, either with JavaScript, or with the Action Wizard, to detect if any objects are outside of a defined Artbox or Margins? I am just looking to do a final check before we send a file to print, which I would think is a pretty common action, but after digging through the API and the Action Wizard, I can't seem to find any way to flag content that might print over a binding or hole punch.

Happy to put more effort in; I just need some help to get going in the right direction!

Thanks in advance, Justin

A script can only check the locations of objects such as form fields, comments and links, as well as the location of words (although the latter is more complicated). It can't know where things like images or graphics are located on the page.
