hi folks,

i know that pdf input is a nightmare, and i'm not looking to convert pdf to epub or anything. Rather, i'm wondering if calibre can help with some formatting of the pdf. I would still end up with a pdf on my reader, which isn't ideal, but i don't think there's much else i can do about that.

So, is there any way Calibre can crop the margins on pdf's for me before sending the pdf to the device? That's the main thing i'm interested in, though other things like adjusting the crop and detecting tables of contents would be nice too.

thanks!

note: while this question must have been asked before, a search here and on google didn't come up with anything.
