Check page box layout

Belongs to

Checks whether the page boxes comply with the selected layout (Press, Screen viewing or PDF/X layout).

The attributes depend on the chosen layout:

Press layout (typically for print)
If you select this layout, the Action derives the correct media size from the first page box that is present in the document. The order in which is searched, is fixed: first the art box, then the trim, crop, bleed and finally the media box.
You can define the minimum distance required between the media and bleed box and between the bleed and trim box, and you should choose one of the following options:
- Crop box must equal trim box, or
- No crop box must be defined or the crop box equals the media box. This means that it is OK if the crop box is not defined, but if it is defined, it should have the same size and position as the media box.
Screen viewing

If you select this layout, the Action checks if the page is defined solely by the crop box, which should have the same size as the media box. No other page boxes are allowed.
PDF/X layout

If you select this layout, the Action checks if the page box layout is compliant with the selected PDF/X version.

If you have chosen PDF/X-1a:2003 or PDF/X-3:2003, the art box or trim box shall not extend beyond the boundaries of the bleed box and the crop box.
