I use Finale v.25 with Windows 10

I finished a Choir Arrangement, on an Octavo Sheet of paper. However, I need to export it to PDF, with the page centered on an 8.5x11 sheet of paper with "Crop Marks" on it so when my music is printed double-sided, it will center and it can just be trimmed to appropriate size. I have already tried clicking the "Fit to Page" Option along with the Crop marks when I print it, and oh, export to PDF, however, When I view the PDF, the page is instead, fitted toward the left-most corner of the 8.5x11 sheet. How do I center it?

I think the problem is selecting Fit to Page. Don't select that.
