How can i use this pdf print template for indesign

Hi!

I would like to create an InDesign file with the same specifications from the attached PDF print template.

What is the best way to do this? I have already tried importing the PDF, but it fails when creating the print mark and the print mark area. It is also difficult to define the exact printable area with auxiliary lines. Is there a simple solution for importing the dimensions in exactly the same way?

Thank you very much!

If that's from a print company, they ofter have downloadable templates in InDesign, Illustrator, and Photoshop.

You'll need to do it manually. There is no way to import those settings from a PDF. Set the new document up using the print area as the size for the document, add any necessary bleed and then add margins for the safe area.
