Very happy to believe that, Ross (and will test later) but what I do not understand is why things have changed so dramatically in going from TeX Live 2014 to 2016. In 2014, adding the PDF/X-1A specials made no difference whatsoever to the position of size of the page; in 2016, they cause a vertical displacement. There have been significant changes, at least in xdvipdfmx since 2014. And the interaction with the color package is also inexplicable. Anyhow, I first have to come up with a truly MWE and then I will be in a better position to investigate and report back. Please send me such MWE when you have it. I’ve been trying a real-world example (Serbian version of TeXLive documentation) that compiles fine (with one small hiccup that doesn’t seem to affect the result) using 2016’s xdvipdfmx , but which crashes out almost immediately with 2014 saying: SCI:TL-SR16 ross$ /usr/local/texlive/2014/bin/universal-darwin/xdvipdfmx -z 0 -vv --kpathsea-debug 4095 texlive-sr.xdv <FONTMAP:/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-var/fonts/map/pdftex/updmap/pdftex.map><FONTMAP:/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-var/fonts/map/dvipdfmx/updmap/kanjix.map><FONTMAP:/usr/local/texlive/2014/texmf-dist/fonts/map/dvipdfmx/ckx.map>texlive-sr.xdv -> texlive-sr.pdf kdebug:fopen(texlive-sr.xdv, rb) => 0xa0e103ec DVI ID = 7 xdvipdfmx:fatal: Something is wrong. Are you sure this is a DVI file? Output file removed. SCI:TL-SR16 ross$ Note that I have maximum verbosity turned on, as well as a lot of kpathsea tracing. Yet still it isn’t clear where it is going wrong. So I’d appreciate your cut-down MWE to test with both versions. Then we can play with /MediaBox and /CropBox values, to see whether that is the cause of what you are getting. Or whether it is something else. ** Phil.
