    Adobe Acrobat 11

    Acrobat DC prints the entire crop box for me. If your crop box is smaller than your media box you don't want it to print the media box. The visible part of a PDF is the crop box. Many times the crop box and media box are the same...but not always.

    Global Change Specific Color

    Is it set to do the global change on the current page or the whole document? The only time I've seen this happen is if I have it set to a page range that doesn't exist in the current document.
