My PDF has different page sizes after I have run Preflight to resize all pages

Hi,

 

I am a very novice user. I would appreciate any help.

 

I am trying to edit an old book for printing via Lulu.com. (It's a work I am looking at as part of my PhD study.) I have successfully learned to scale pages using pre-flight mode, and I can move around content using the Set Page Boxes menu with x and y off set. So it all looks good to print.

 

But, when I upload my PDF to Lulu, I am told that my pages are different sizes! I am wondering whether there is something to do with layers that aren't compressed.

 

Here is a link to the file concerned: https://www.dropbox.com/s/wkz8r3e0n0q3fd4/1647%20Christ%20Dying%20Torrance%20print%20final%20X.pdf?d...

 

If anyone is able to advise I would be very grateful!

 

Thanks,

Sam

Hi @slbbls Your document size is 6x9. What might be causing Lulu to reject it are the images being too close to the edge as seen on many pages (see page 3 where you are almost right up to the right edge).

Also, I don't see any layers in the document. Choose View > Show/Hide > Navigation Panes > Layers.
