--autotrim individual pages #12

Closed thblt closed 4 years ago

thblt commented 6 years ago

Hi,

Is it possible to have --autotrim either automatically generate a "Trim margins" crop box for each individual page, or compute the largest crop box for the full page range? I have some very long (>1000 pages) documents I'd like to make more readable on a small screen e-reader, and i'd rather not check each crop box individually :)

Thanks!

Hi Thibault! That's an excellent suggestion. I have added it to the TODO list.

You are now able to call

krop --trim --trim-use=all file.pdf

to automatically create a crop box that works for all pages. For your large documents, this will probably take a long time though!

You can already check out the code on github for this functionality. It will be included in the next release, which is planned soon.

@arminstraub Is it possible to trim each page using its own selection, i.e. do not apply the same selection to all the pages?
