One suggestion I might make would be to think of the old adage of using 'horses
for courses'. I would suggest that SVG might be a better vehicle for this rather than PDF. I seem to remember that Inkscape has various tools to
generate 'clipping paths' which are fully editable node by node. These tools
generate files of co-ordinates compatable with industry standard cutters.

What I did (and the printing company had no issue) was to put 2 extra pages where the clip boundary was as curve, they had no problem extracting that from the PDF. I used that curve on the master page to make it visible with all other pages, but removed it when exporting the print verion of the final PDF for them. </div><div><br></div><div>SVG and inkscape are quite awkward (for me) when it comes to exact positioning, not speaking about multi-page documents. I am happy I could do it with the great Scribus :)</div><div><br></div><div>Cheers, Vaclav</div><div><br></div><blockquote type="cite"><pre></pre></blockquote></body></html>
