I don't need to crop a PDF very often, and when I do I almost always end up using the croppdf shell script posted by manday in the Sony DPT-S1 thread after checking whether there is something else easier to use.

The thing with Briss is, it's EASIER than you expect. You can GUI it, and you think you have to do this or that, to draw the outlines, but you JUST do it with your damn cursor. I wasted like 2 hours, trying to figure out how to COPY the trim area, and I finally figured out I didn't have to.
What is does do that takes some getting used to, is lumping the evens and odds together, on the assumption that you can trim all the pages the same way. That took some getting used to, too, but once I "got it" it took 30 seconds to trim a huge PDF.
Easy-peasy; just
explained poorly.
