Export to PDF problem

[FScott]

I've set up a 12 by 18 inch page that I Export making it a PDF. The the PDF reads the page size as 13 by 19 inches which is a problem since it is a two sided document, TIFF on one side Text on the other and the paper size is 12 by 18.
Is there something I should be switching off? I had set it to add bleed and slugs, but I had already incorporated those into the document, turning that extra comand didn't fix the page resize problem.

When you go to export the pdf and get pdf setup window, click on Marks & Bleeds. If you have use "use document bleeds" checked the pdf will include these in the page size. In your case it appears that you put in a 1/2 bleed all around. If you leave it unchecked and con't put in any bleed in the pdf setup box, the document will retain page size.

If this is going to a printer, it's best that you use the documetn bleed settings & include the printers marks, especially crop and bleed.
