Hello, I mean the whatever space around the trimming area. This out-of-trimming-area may content lines, texts, colored areas, whatever; and the intention is to remove them permanently (= unrestorable) by specifying crop-box.

Btw: I didn't use/test the utility so far, but I believe it really removes the content out of the trimming area; some SW I've been using for that purpose just change the crop-box, so the content out of the trimming area reappears once you restore the cropping specification to its original value. Best regards, Lukas The current version only crops the first page and discards the rest.
