@Markom: Thank you so much! I'm going to try this as soon as I scan the whole book!

This crops pages 3 and 5 with one crop box and pages 1, 2, 4, and 6 with another crop box. The other options you then select with k2pdfopt (e.g. -mode fitwidth) will then apply to those cropped regions.

See the -cbox option on my command-line usage page.
Hey, Willus! I've just remembered! I'm gonna probably need this tool again... So I wanted to ask you if you could teach me how did you discover this parameters:

-cbox3-o .7,.6,5.6,8.3 -cbox1,2-e 2.3,.5,6,8.5

?

How did you calculated crop boxes, or margins for these 6 pages? Can you teach me how to do it myself? Also, I would like to learn how to write this -cbox command from above. Can you explain it, pls?
