X0-4 Touch (wholesales for around ~$200). Evince is installed at the factory and raster PDFs look good. Evince gives the option to "fit page" or "fit width", and also gives micro control over the scaling if you want neither of the "fit" settings.

The x0-4 touch would theoretically run BRISS (it runs Fedora), but I've not tried it yet.

I've been looking for a tool like that. Is it a destructive or non-destructive crop? Most PDF tools do a non-destructive crop by merely adjusting the viewable area while storing the trim out of sight.

Ideally, a tool would autocrop the whole document non-destructively. And then (ideally) a PDF reader would enable the user to destructively make the crop permanent page-by-page as they read. So after the first time the user reads the book, the PDF would result as custom cropped and the file would be smaller because no space would be wasted on the trim around each image.
