Hi.

I want to resize only one page.

"page.bounds" is read only and I don't know that use "page.resize()", "page.reframe()".

I want to just resize page by set width, height or bounds.

Please help..

Thanks in advance.

Correct answer Trevor:

A very quick guide to resize.

app.activeDocument.pages.everyItem().resize(CoordinateSpaces.INNER_COORDINATES,AnchorPoint.CENTER_ANCHOR,ResizeMethods.REPLACING_CURRENT_DIMENSIONS_WITH,[72*5,72*7]);

Will change all the pages to 5 inches 5 by 7 across, that is 72 points per inch for mm do 72 * 5 / 24.1 for 5mm

Look up Adobe InDesign CS6 (8.0) Object Model JS: Page

Marc has several chapters on the topic but if you play around with the one liner above you should be able to do most of what you need.
