Selecting Page 2 for an action to run

Post by SBLESS »

Hi
I have a 2 page pdf that I need to enlarge by 2.5mm all round.
This works on both pages, no problem.
I then need to select page 2 and add a 0.25mm keline around the media box then flip the whole of page 2.

The action I have will not isolate page 2. it flips page 1 as well.

Any ideas why?

Thanks
Steve

Select pages > Page range > 2
Flip content
Add Object > Rectangle using mediabox as dimensions

Couldn't that work?

No, it selects both pages.

That action is what I have been trying.

In order to get around the problem I run the action on the selected page and not full document.
It would be good to have just one action list though.
