Why you should complete this activity

The Kodak Prinergy Geometry Editor software is a Kodak plug-in for the Adobe Acrobat software. It is used with both the Kodak Prinergy software and the Kodak Prinergy Evo software. The Geometry Editor enables you to adjust the trim, media, crop, art, or bleed boxes for one or more pages. You can also adjust the width and height of a region.

For example, the Geometry Editor helps you manage the trim box in various ways:

• For PDF input files, use the plug-in to set the trim size before you add PDF files to a job. When you refine the PDF input files, the system retains the trim size.
• For refined pages, use the plug-in as a trim box viewer or to visually set the trim size, if needed.
