Hi everyone, I rarely print to anything other than standard 8.5 x 11 so I'm struggling a bit here with a smaller page size.

I'm using Frame 11, without the most recent patch, and Acrobat XI. My Frame page size is set to 4 x 5.7 inches and my PDF options and Job Options are the same. The PDF output is the correct page size. All is good. However, I want my client to be able to print the PDF on standard 8.5 x 11 paper and see trim marks that define the page size of the PDF. I can do this in Frame by selecting File>>Save As>> PDF and selecting Western registration marks. All is good.

HOWEVER, I don't want all of the registration marks; I want only trim marks. So I need to do this in Acrobat, not Frame. I cannot get Acrobat set up to do this correctly. I've located the Add Printer Marks toolbar, but I can't get it to work. I suspect that the printed page size needs to be bigger than the page size defined by the trim marks. However, I can't define a different page size in the PDF file; that needs to be done in Frame. But I don't want Frame to change the PDF output's page size.

I'm going in circles here. Any advice? (This was so simple in earlier versions of both Frame and Acrobat.)
