MemberHi Harls thanks for the reply.
I've only recently found out through my IDUG meeting that InDesign & Illustrator are made by two different camps. This may explain why some things look, and/or are different in either program but not both.
I do use the (.indt) template but rarely are the files the same imposition, so there goes that idea.
Thanks Harls I appreciate the advice.

MemberThanks Anne-Marie. I will wait for the post, very interesting for me working in prepress. This method would feel safer for me as opposed to the gasket blowing techniques that I know.

MemberColin, I've just tried your technique and it works a treat. I though to myself when I read your post “oh yeah that makes sense, why didn't I think of that.) I have now named the technique appropriately as the “CC” aka Colin Converter.

I really appreciate your help, thanks mate.
Cheers

MemberThanks for the reply docbud.
Yes my concern directly relates to your very comment. “I'm more concerned with getting jobs done”
As a junior working in prepress here's an example. I sometimes need to prepare artwork say 2 up for the offsett machines. There could be perfs, folds, scores, gutter margins etc that I need to show. When my page is zoomed right in and i'm placing all these marks it can be off putting when i'm doing this around the 'page shadow' It does slow the work flow down and can interfer with what I am seeing on screen.
Any suggestions to solve this would be welcome.
Cheers.

MemberHi David,
Yes the paper edge drop shadow lines are exactly what I'm talking about. I do understand the preview mode view thanks, my issue lies in the fact that these lines are redundant. If it doesn't need to be there why not just leave it out.

MemberHi Bob,
Thanks for that, I'll just put up with them. Curious though, do you know why are they there anyway?
