Hi, I figure I'd reach the most knowledgeable scripters here as opposed to other forums....

I need to have a Javascript that I can run in Acrobat (version 5) that can crop a legal size page down to a letter size page. It needs to keep the top edge in the same place, and cut off the bottom section. It would also be great if there is also a way to have that javascript stay in the machine and get run by a script... I will probably be able to make the Applescript to perform that action when files are dropped in a folder, but if there are any special issues with Jscripts I should know of that would help a bunch.
I wish I could do this on my own but javascript seems far too removed for me to learn in a reasonable amount of time to get this taken care of... Applescript OK, Java Hard. :-)
Thanks in advance!!
Chris
