You can use crop.sty and pdfpages.sty to process PDF documents
regardless which program produced the PDF files.

Here is an example (a4crop.tex) which puts a5 pages (from a5.pdf) on
a4 paper and adds cropmarks.

-------------------------------------
\documentclass[a5paper]{article}
\usepackage[cam,a4,center,axes]{crop}
\usepackage{pdfpages}
\begin{document}
\includepdf[pages=-]{a5.pdf}
\end{document}
-------------------------------------

Then run 
     pdflatex a4crop

Regards,
  Reinhard

Microsoft isn't the answer. Microsoft is the question, and the answer is NO.
