It may be simple and I'm just missing it but how do I cut and paste an image from one page to another in a multi page document?

I try and it ends up moving it as per my settings in preferences. I'm pretty sure it's possible as I managed to do it but it pasted it in a totally different page than the one I wanted. Luckily I noticed it or that would have been an issue.

I have had issues with this as well.
the closest I can come is to paste it and then use the Pitstop mover tool to get it in the right place, but then again, I didn't spend a lot of time looking for answers.

I can move it but I have to move to 2 pages. If it was the next page that's not bad.

When I did have it move it moved 5 pages but there was no rhyme or reason that it did.

sounds like you have the "curse". 
When you try to do the paste, do you have the page you are pasting into on the screen in full page view?

You have to click on the page you are pasting on. It's a bug. Change your Pitstop preferences to paste in place, by deleting the offsets and setting them to zero.

Switch to the page you want it on.

Select Pitstop tool in case it is no longer selected.

Click on the gray background.

COMMAND+V

Works for me anyway.

Not sure it is a bug. If you don't click somewhere on the new page than the other page is still selected and that is where it puts it. Works as designed I think.

Maybe, but I think it's lame. If you indicate what page you want to travel to, all the tools should apply to that page. Clicking somewhere on the pasteboard seems... back-ass 1990 to me.

I wonder if it is picking up coordinates from stray bounding boxes or facing pages?

If that is the case it is on Adobe and not Enfocus. Good luck getting Adobe to change anything! :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:  :banghead:

Right. They would have to admit to it before they change it.

Did you empty your Safari Cache? :D

Adobe does no wrong. If it isn't working for you you're doing it wrong.

I should copyright that saying before Adobe steals it for their next ad campaign.
