How It Works

Deux modes: Mise à l'échelle (50% = moitié). Le mode format de papier adapte les pages. Avec 'Conserver les proportions' activé, l'échelle est uniforme.

Stretch to fit:Distorts pages to exactly fill the target dimensions, ignoring aspect ratio. Usually you want this off — enable only for backgrounds or full-bleed fills where distortion is acceptable.
Percentage:Scale factor as a percentage. 50 = half size, 100 = no change, 200 = double. For A-series paper conversions: 71% (one size down), 141% (one size up).

Options Guide
Pages

Specify which pages to process using a range expression.

Examples: 'all' = every page. '1-5' = pages 1 through 5. '1,3,5' = specific pages. '1-10 odd' = odd pages 1-9. '2-20 even' = even pages 2-20. 'last' = last page. 'last-2' = third from last. Ranges are 1-based. Combine with commas: '1-5, 8, 12-15'.

Resize Mode

Choose percentage scaling or fitting to a target paper size.

Percentage: applies a uniform scale factor to all pages. Common values: 50% (half), 71% (A4→A5), 141% (A5→A4), 200% (double). Paper size: select a target sheet and pages are scaled to fit. Larger pages are shrunk, smaller ones are enlarged. Aspect ratio preservation prevents distortion.

Bleeds

Extends artwork beyond the trim edge to prevent white strips after cutting.

Three modes: 'No bleeds' trims exactly at the page boundary. 'Pull from document' uses bleed info already embedded in the PDF (TrimBox/BleedBox metadata). 'Fixed' lets you manually set bleed on each side, typically 3mm (0.125in / 9pt) for commercial print, 1-2mm for digital. Bleed values define how far past the trim edge the artwork extends.

Configurations & Variations
Resize to A4 Paper

Pick A4 from the paper size dropdown to fit content onto 210 x 297 mm sheets. Pages scale proportionally by default and center on the A4 area. A common use case is converting US Letter designs for European print runs.

150% Scale

Enter 150 in the percentage field to enlarge pages by 50%. A4 pages come out at roughly A3 size. Handy for producing enlarged proofs where small text and fine details need close inspection, or for scaling artwork up to large-format dimensions.

Expert Tip

When scaling for a different press sheet, keep Preserve aspect ratio on to avoid stretching. Use absolute dimensions (points or mm) instead of percentages for repeatable results across jobs.

Scaling raster-heavy PDFs up beyond 150% will produce visible pixelation. Request higher-resolution source files instead of scaling up.
