 | You're not doing it right.
From PageMaker:
Print
In the Document tab make sure you have a Postscript ptinter and the proper PPD selected.
Ine the Paper tab first check the printer marks. then set paper size ( above the pritner marks) to Custom. It should automatically select a paper size about 0.9" larger than the document size.
In the Options tab, make sure you set "send image data" as Normal, include fonts PostScript and Truetype. Then click "write PostScript to file" button (Normal should appear selected below it). Browse to where you want the file to go and give it a name.
You probably want to visit the colro tab as well. Before clickin Send, go back and rev?st all the tabs to make sure nothing has chnaged from where you set it (PM 5 or erly 6 had the nasty habit of doingin this if you did nopt make the settings in a specific sequence).
If you have a PDF that you want to print with crop marks:
with PDF open, go to print. select a postscript pr?nter and hit the properties button. From here the options and process depends on the OS. make sure you get to a paper size that is about an inch larger than the document size.
back at the main Acrobat print menu, hit Advanced and it is in these dialogs that you can turn on crop marks and such. Note thaty at this po?nt it will put crop marks on the page size represented in the PDF. If the PDF was made from PostScript that had an incorrect paper size, then there's not much you can do about it here.
