I just got a Kindle DX too, and I had the same problem.

Try A-PDF Page Crop. I tried the others (Briss, PDFill, etc), but found A-PDF to be a lot better because it's the only one I found that has a graphic interface where you can manipulate the crop box over the actual PDF and get exactly what you want.

You can create a crop box the size of the Kindle screen, put it over the text, and make multiple boxes on the same PDF to grab multiple new pages.

And for the people with 6 inch screens, it works just as well for you. You can set the output size of the cropped image to fit any dimensions you want. You can even save "rules" so that the next time you crop a PDF, you can just load the same thing you did before.

Give it a shot, I think you'll find it to be a LOT easier, and more powerful, than the other options out there.

I've tried at least 5 other cropping programs, and this one has to be the best I've found so far.
