different page sizes in book
Mollye, I can be done on the template level. Make all your master pages 17x11 and then put a postscript code textbox on each master page you want trimmed to 8.5 x 11 at distill time. (You have to specify the rectangle in points in the postscript text box.) The code you want is: [/CropBox [0 0 612 792 ] /PAGE pdfmark All master pages that have this postscript textbox will distill to 8.5 x 11. Those that don't will be 17 x 11. Baruch Brodersen *** Hi All, I'm sure this has been asked and answered but I'm on a short lead... I have a book that is 99% 8.5 x 11. However, there are also a few 17 x 11 (drawing foldouts) that go in to the book at the end of chapters. Right now, it appears that I have to choose one size when I render (PDF settings) and insert the 17 x 11 pages manually. My goal is to put all the files in one book and render the PDF?to the?two page sizes without manual intervention. Is this possible? If so, how? Any help, as always, is greatly appreciated!

different page sizes in book
The easiest way to do this is to have the tab pages in separate files and insert them into book in the appropriate places, not to try to include them inside a letter-size file. You can adjust the page and chapter numbering so that they are chapter components by adjusting the Numbering properties of the files in the book file. If the large pages fall in the middle of a chapter, you can split the chapter into sub files with the tab page in the middle -- again, fixing the numbering at the book level.

Thanks for the suggestions. I'll tweak the template and try Baruch's method. My sense, though, is that future users will freak when they see the page sizes! Mollye Barrett ClearPath, LLC content management solutions www.clearpath.cc 414-331-1378 (cell)

Mollye, As others have suggested, we distill separate PDF files for each page size, then put them together in Acrobat. It's a manual process, but causes fewer problems than trying to do it automatically.
