Hi Maciej, It is a specific requirement of PDF/X-3. Without this defined in the PDF exported it will fail certification tests. The bug I referred to was to add support for explicitly adding support for defining these other 'boxes' within PDF export. Lack of these boxes is not necessarily a problem as they are assumed based on the media box setting. Cheers, Peter -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
