Selecting Page 2 for an action to run

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.

Hi, sorry for the late reply.

For some reason it now works.
I must have been doing something wrong.

Thanks for your help


If you need me to post the action, I will.
