Ability to set margins on pages doesn't work for pages without base content consisting only of comments or stamps

[rakunavi]

Hello all,

I have found that the ability to set margins on document pages, which was added in the relatively recent build 384, does not work for pages without base content, i.e., pages consisting only of comments and stamps. It is possible that this is a temporary lack of functionality due to ongoing implementation, in which case the developers may be well aware of it.

In the first half of the verification video, after inserting one blank page at the end of the EULA of the PDF-XChange Editor consisting of three pages, the base content of page 1 is copied and pasted as a stamp on pages 1 and 4. Then, in the Set Margins dialog, enable all Content Scale Options and set the margins to 100 pt. top, bottom, left and right. the stamp pasted over the first page will be scaled down, but the stamp pasted on the fourth page will not be scaled down.

In the second part of the verification video, the stamp is pasted onto a new document. The same settings are used to set the margins, but the "No changes were made. Please check your input data and try again." dialog box appears and the operation is not accepted.

Hoping that the above information will be of some help to you.
Thank you so much for your continued support.

Best regards,
rakunavi
