Postscript file lose trimbox information

Hello,

Do you know there's a way to keep the trimbox measure when I export or save a PDF in PS?

Because when I recreate the PDF with Acrobat Distiller using the PS saved I lose all the information about the trimbox, mediabox, etc...

 

Thank you for your help
Francesco

You should ask on the Pitstop forum, I don't use it so I cannot help you furthermore.

Hello JR,

 

Ok but the box informations comes from InDesign PDF export 😄

You can see with Acrobat tools https://capture.dropbox.com/bceesMhQYXBAlrVM
In that case Enfocus Pitstop shows only that measure information, it doesn't do anything.

 

Thanks

Don't use Distiller to create PS files.

Use Acrobat Pro: File menu : Export to: PostScript
