Hi guys,

I've currently got about 100 single page PDF's which have crop marks. I need to resize the artboard to remove these crop marks. I can do it in illustrator, except the command doesn't record in actions, or i can do it in Acrobat pro but it doesn't have an option for batch.

Does anybody have any idea's i really don't want to do all of these by hand.

Under advanced/document processing/batch processing ... choose a new sequence. Add crop pages, but click edit before adding it to specify your margins. Then apply to a folder of files.

I actually figured out how to do this shortly after posting this question, it would seem just writing it down caused the answer to materialize.

I just used the combine multiple files option to create one pdf with all 103 pages in it. Then i changed the crop settings, then i extracted all the pages seperately. Works perfectly.

Cheers everyone.

That's an option too.
