How to delete Custom Page Sizes / Document Preset sizes

Contributor ,
Sep 19, 2022 Sep 19, 2022

In the Pages panel I've edited the Page Sizes. These custom page sizes have been saved. And also appear in the New Document Preset sizes.

 

How do I delete these?

Hold, I've just worked it out...

In the Page Panel > Edit Page Size > Custom > Select the size and delete it.

Delete InDesign’s preferences.

 

But: If you want a document with another size, use File > Document Set Up …

Using page diensions changes only for exceptions in a file, like for the shorter page of a trifold or the spine of a book cover, but not for all pages as it causes further problems lile a bigger file size or more crashes in bigger files.

Any chance Adobe could make this a simpler solution?

Perhaps: 1) Create new Document.  2) Name new page size.  3) Add new doc size to the PreSets.

At the bottom of the New Document page add the ability to delete a preset.... "Delete Preset"

Probably deleting the InDesign cache might remove it. See the following discussion
