You can't preview PDF documents with PDF Tools, but if you need to do a constant crop on all pages, it works very nicely. To figure out cropping margins, what I do is export a page from the PDF to image (PNG, usually 100 dpi for easy calculations: 1in=100px ), open the image in IrfanView and crop it from there. Once I have the margin values, I just do a batch crop on the original PDF file in PDF Tools.

If you have a PDF reader which displays rulers, then you can base cropping margin from there. No need to convert to images. Try as I might, though, I couldn't find any way to show rulers on Adobe Acrobat Reader 7.
Thanks for the details I will give it a shot this weekend.
