Ady PDFs using Mac Word m Mac Word 2008 o File / Save As and d 2008. Choose y e PDF from the drop down y y n list to the right of the For p y g rmat box. Tab and are all Once y And tha d make sure the words (E embedded. Open the PD you have created the PDF at is all there is to it! Mbedded Subset) are to t DF file and go to File / Prop F. With the right crop mark still selected, press Shift and click on the left crop mark, then select Draw Group from the Drawing toolbar. (In Word 2007 and above, use the Group control on the Drawing Tools Format tab.) Create the bottom crop marks. With the two grouped crop marks selected, press Ctrl+D to create a duplicate. In the Preview app on your Mac, click the Show Markup Toolbar button (if the Markup toolbar isn’t showing), then click the Rectangular Selection button. Select the portion of the page you want to keep. Click the Crop button in the Markup toolbar (or use the Touch Bar). Note: To undo the crop immediately, choose Edit Undo Crop.
Pages can't generate crop marks natively (and I know of no other $40 application that does). If you are starting a new project, you can set up a custom template to do this. In Page Setup, set the page size to a custom size larger than the page you need (e.g., a few centimetres larger horizontal and vertical than the final page size). In the new page that appears, set the page guides to mark the border of the document, then set the crop and bleed marks where specified by your printer.
Note that this won't really help if the document already exists, since changing the page size may mess up existing formatting.

What PDF program can I buy that I can paste my Word doc into that will give me crop marks for printing?
PDFClerk Pro will do what you ask.
Maybe you should look for a different printer. It isn't reasonable to expect end-users to supply markup extensions like crop marks. You should just give the printer your PDF, tell them what output size you want, and then look at the proof they give you. They are the professional and they should be the ones messing with the PDF tools.
