Question for the book scanners

Upon closer inspection, all it did was duplicate the selected pages, and then crop them to either the left or right half, without actually trimming any image data (the other half was simply hanging off the left or right side of the visible page).

Dave,

You can always just print the cropped pdf to a new pdf file. The new pdf file will then not have the cropped pieces.

I do this quite often. I receive a pdf that has a lot of white margin. I crop the white margin out and then re-print to a new pdf. I now have a pdf without the white margins and which will display in a larger size.
