Hello frabjous,
I know what 'sandbox' means and if it was my misunderstanding, then I send my appologies to patilsaurabhr (just strange that there so many rotfls ;-))
As I wrote before, in home directory is simple INI-like file with number, no need to bother with VM.
And yes, OSS always better choise if proper alternative exist. Still I'm looking for good free autocropper for PDFs with raster images (better for Linux).
I liked VeryDoc cropper because of capability to crop text pages and image pages same time. And margins were only marked not truncated, so always persisted option to correct some pages after cropping. But I would be quite happy with one good autocropper for textual PDFs (wich I've found already) and another for raster PDF's.

I have few ideas.
1.
In Gimp is function called 'Zealous Crop'. It crops not only margins but also white spaces between objects, for example spaces between lines or paragraphs in books. It crops near all space but better to choose percentage of whitespace. Afterwards can be applied 75-90% resize, but only horizontal. That way some documents are resizable even in 3/4 (fonts will look condensed). And because such function can slice document into lines, lines could be aligned, because in some books lines (like headers) are shifted forward.
2.
Lines of text in PDFs could be divided in two or three, pictures shifted and resized, afterwards optionally lines could be justified. It is option not for all books, but in some cases would help.
