hello dear friends,
i make the follow steps in corel draw x8 :
1. i make a page 20x20 cm
2. i draw a square 20x20 cm
3. the adove file ...publish to pdf (editing format with crop marks)
4. finally import the above pdf file to a blank new page 20x20 cm.
The result is that the imported square is 20x20 cm but the crop marks ''cuts'' bigger dimensions from 20x20 (aproxx 20.16 x 20.16 cm).
Why??
Thank you in advance for your help

If I have a page 20 x 20 cm, then publish to PDF with crop marks, then import the PDF file into a new blank CorelDraw document, I see crop marks that "cut" an area 20.003 x 20.003 cm.
So, you and I are seeing VERY different results!
Perhaps you could upload sample .CDR and PDF files?

OK, I am seeing what you describe.
When I tried this on an A4 (210 x 297 mm) page, portrait orientation, I found that the crop marks matched the page frame closely (0.0001 mm) at the lower left hand corner of the page.
At the upper right hand corner of the page, the crop marks deviated from the page frame by 0.039 mm (height) and 0.256 mm (width) .
