Correct. I've posted code for handling this here --- you also need to put in a special to get the crop, trim and bleed boxes correct. something like: \documentclass[showtrims,10pt]{memoir} \usepackage[xetex]{color} \usepackage{fixltx2e} \usepackage[xetex]{graphicx} \usepackage{xltxtra} \usepackage{fontspec} \usepackage{xunicode} \usepackage{ifthen} %170mm x 240mm. I must have these margins: top: 25mm, bottom: 30mm; %outside: 25mm; inside: 25mm. \setstocksize{752.315bp}{553.89bp} %\stockheight \stockwidth %\settrimmedsize{240mm}{170mm}{*} \settrimmedsize{680.304bp}{481.882bp}{*} %converted to BP 'cause using mm made Acrobat 8 report an error %\paperheight \paperwidth \settrims{36bp}{36bp} %\trimtop \trimedge %\setxlvchars[] %\settypeblocksize{17\onelineskip}{.75\xlvchars}{*} \settypeblocksize{524.41bp}{340.158bp}{*} %top form, first argument is preferred version --- %figure out your typesize leading and set the proper number of lines %\textheight \textwidth \setlrmargins{70.865bp}{*}{1} %\spinemargin \foremargin \setulmargins{70.865bp}{*}{1.2}%25mm * 1.2 == 30mm %\uppermargin \lowermargin \setheadfoot{1\onelineskip}{1\onelineskip} %\headheight \footskip \setheaderspaces{0bp}{*}{*} %\headdrop \headsep \setmarginnotes{1\onelineskip}{.125\xlvchars}{1\onelineskip} %\marginparsep \marginparwidth \marginparpush \checkandfixthelayout \quarkmarks \usepackage{atbegshi} \AtBeginShipout{\special{pdf: put @thispage <</TrimBox [36.0 36.0 517.9 716.3]>>}} \special{pdf: put @thispage <</TrimBox [36.0 36.0 517.9 716.3]>>} \begin{document} Test\clearpage Test \end{document} -- William Adams senior graphic designer Fry Communications Sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow. -------------------------------------------------- Subscriptions, Archive, and List information, etc.: http://tug.org/mailman/listinfo/xetex
