A small update.

As I stated in my earlier post (#3), I initially tried creating a new, separate Adobe PDF printer configured to work with pages of the desired size. The idea was to print the FrameMaker book of US Letter pages through that printer. Well, it worked well enough to enable me to avoid a parallel set of content...

Then the customer tried printing the US Letter sized PDF through a similarly customized PDF printer. That put the US Letter PDF's contents on B5 pages, albeit at a loss of the bookmarks.

But the customers were satisfied with the printed output; they were happy to view the bookmarked PDF in US Letter and print on B5 paper. So, I'm happy to say that they're just "Cuisinarting" taking the US Letter PDFs for printing.

Boy, talk about dodging a workflow bullet...

Cheers, thanks to all who responded, and hope this helps,
Riley
