PDF to EPUP conversion after page cropping

To better use the whole screen of my BeBook, I usually try to crop (using Adobe Acrobat or PDF-XChange Viewer) the pages at least to get rid of headers and footers or page numbers.

I noticed that the PDF2EPUB routine of Calibre usually works well with these files, but still shows the headers and footers, like it was mentioned in this forum earlier. However, if I use the Text Viewer Mode of Foxit Reader, these unwanted lines are gone. I have to conclude that Foxit is able to distinguish if some lines are inside or outside of the printable area.

Would it be possible to add a function to Calibre, e.g. with a checkbox, to choose whether to convert the whole document or only its printable area? For me that would be extremely helpful.

Thanks a lot!
