Hi,

Can you try with below code:

var myDoc = app.activeDocument;
var myGraphics = myDoc.allGraphics;
for (var a = 0; a<myGraphics.length; a++)
{
     if (myGraphics.imageTypeName == "Adobe PDF")
     {
          var myBounds = myGraphics.parent.geometricBounds;
          myGraphics.parent.geometricBounds = [(myBounds[0]+20), (myBounds[1]+20), (myBounds[2]-20), (myBounds[3]-20)]
  ...

But make sure your ruler unit should be in mm.

Here is Zanelli script for placing pdf in Indesign.
