Allow me to make a correction to the above post. If I remember right, in ID 1.5, turning on the Apply Photoshop Clipping Paths option in the Place dialog automatically caused the image bounding box to be snug against all edges of the clipping path. In ID2.0, this no longer happens. The bounding box is sized to fit the image dimensions without the clipping path. In ID2.0, the closest thing I've found to simulating the way it was done in ID1.5 is right-clicking the image and selecting Convert Clipping Path to Frame. Is this the only way to go about getting the bounding box to fit the image's clipping path? And if so, what's that magic single line of code that I need to employ in my script? Thanks everyone, -Benny
