"pdfcrop" is a tool for cropping and setting margins in pdf files. It does this using pdf2ps, ps2pdf, poster and pdftk (optional). This small python program is very useful as it compensates for the inconsistencies in CUPS (After exaustive research, I was not able to adjust margins with CUPS). Could someone write an ebuild for this please? Source: http://pdfcrop.sourceforge.net/ Reproducible: Always
There's only binary :(
Its a python script - you don't compile it. (In reply to comment #1) > There's only binary :( >
I'd also like to add that's there another program by the same name that belongs to texlive-latex package, which has additional features.

it world be nice if someone can put this ebuild in the portage. the request is since a while :)
Ghostscript will not suffice either, as it requires the user to do calculations before cropping, otherwise the cropping is not reliable due to numerous reasons that I cannot cite here; mostly due to document specific attributes.
