There's also no documentation that I could find.
The cropping feature does seem aggressive, but I never lost any text. The main pain with the cropping for me is that any smudge,trash markings on the sides of the page keep the auto-crop from zooming in on actual text.

I have not seen any documentation, alas. I thought there was a way to do manual cropping on a page and use that for the whole document, but I forgot how(if it ever existed). I am going to keep fiddling with it, I do need a good djvu to pdf converter, I doubt the kindle DX will ever directly support djvu.
