PDF Trimbox positioning?

Post by theorysavage »

I would really appreciate some feedback about this issue.

It would be very useful for web-based DAM systems to be able to make thumbnails of a press-ready PDF, but only of the trimbox.

I have tried the option "-define pdf:use-trimbox=true" and it seems to get the trim box size right, but the positioning is wrong. Is this a known issue? Is there anyone working on this functionality? Or am I missing something about how to use it? I am willing to provide a bit of funding to help clarify this feature, if necessary.

Thank you
