      I created an ad proof header with text variables and a script that updates on a keyboard shortcut according to the size of the page. So far so good, saved it as a snippet so I can put it onto all my ad proofs, created new page presets with a large enough slug to include the snippet for any file height/width. Set the ad proof header to the top left as X:0″ Y:-1.75″ and make a snippet file.

      Awesome, now I go to put the snippet on one ad, 5.0375″ wide, and it places fine (Holding down ALT and it places at the original location), but then I go to add the snippet on another ad, 6.775″ wide, and it places X:0.8688″ and Y:-1.75. Almost perfect, but I have to modify the X position for all ads but my 5.0375″ ads (most common width, so it’s ok) but it kind of goes against my expectations of how it should work.

      Are my presets wrong or something?
