PDF Page size

I've just revamped a menu in Draw X6 finished size A3. The printer asked for the page to be 6mm over sized in both directions to allow for cropping = 426 x 303mm

When converted to PDF the page was much larger 451.4 x 328.4mm and the crop marks if used would have left the page over A3 in size.

I guess my settings are up the creek somewhere but I'm not sure why or how.

Must admit PDF settings baffle me in main.

    If the print establishment is using even a moderately modern work-flow, your page size needs to be the a3 size, plus bleed if required, plus trim marks, etc, if so directed.

    Then export to pdf. Imposition software typically is set to not use even the trim marks and other information and includes its own. Do check with the print establishment.
