Remove cropmarks

I have received a pdf file supplier and the crop marks must be removed and new places must be removed. I manage to remove the outer cuts, but not the inner ones. I want to place new format on the format of the second crop marks and then let our flow go for other operations. I want to remove the crop marks because we get files that are all different. Do you have any idea how I can solve this problem?

Did you try running the action to remove crop mark twice? The first time should remove the outer marks, and hopefully the second time can remove the inner marks.

I tried, but the second crop marks do not really see the file as crop marks so this does not work

Crop marks are supposed to be outside of the crop box I believe, I suppose crop box is set according to outter crop marks? Therefore inner crop marks are inside the cropbox making them invisible to pitstop,

Can you upload a sample PDF file please or send it to me?

It's probable the inner set of marks are hand drawn, and not being detected.
I'd like to investigate.
