I am fully aware that cropping does not actually remove anything from pdf, just resizes the view area.

So why not do it in one go with Calibre?

All PDF viewers i am aware off display cropped documents correctly. Some of those viewers support (cropping-aware) reflow. That means that apparently there is some API that provides PDF content depending on cropping. Which in turn, i hope, means that rather than being something impossible to implement, this is just a feature that is not implemented in Calibre yet.

So, once again "I wonder why?" & "I hope that this can be fixed."
