Hello! I have a pdf (about 76 pages) which has been done in A4, but I need to have it in different dimensions for printing. The pages sould end up being 20x26cm plus a 3mm margin. How can I do this with InDesign?

Thank you so much!

You can import the PF into InDesign using the PlaceMultipagePDF script, each page will become the single image. So you can transform it into the needed size. But be careful: the target size has different proportions with the start one, so you will need to distort them or have the vertical white spaces on your pages.

But will the quality stay the same? I tried changing come pages of the pdf into png and copy-paste into indesign, but they became blurry (the pdf has a pretty nice image quality)

Thanks for the help!!

margin or bleed?

You see: margin is the white space around your content INSIDE the final size, bleed is an advanced printing space OUTSIDE the final size to prevent the cutting issues. what of these do you mean?

Bleed probably then! I didn't know the difference
