SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
Adobe Acrobat Exchange 3.0 or later for UNIX

INSTALLATION NOTES
1.  Quit all Adobe Acrobat applications.
2.  Move the Supcrop.api file into the 
    Acrobat3\Exchange\<platform>\plug_ins folder, where <platform> 
    is the platform version of Acrobat you have installed
    (e.g., sparcsolaris).

ADDITIONAL NOTES
The Super Crop plug-in is provided as-is and no technical 
support is available for it.

Cropping is the process of selecting part of a page in a PDF 
document and discarding the rest of the page.

To crop a page in a PDF document:
1.  Select the crop tool from the tool bar or by choosing 
    Tools > Super Crop.
2.  Click and drag over the part of the page you want to 
    keep. When you release the mouse button, the crop marquee will 
    appear as a box with handles at each corner.
3.  (Optional) To move the marquee to a new location, hold 
    the Ctrl key as you drag a corner handle. To scale the marquee, 
    drag one of the handles. To constrain the proportions while 
    scaling, hold down Shift as you drag a corner handle.
4.  To continue the cropping process, click once inside 
    the marquee. To cancel the cropping operation, click once 
    outside the marquee.
5.  In the Pages to Crop dialog box, select a crop option 
    (i.e., the current page crop or all pages), then click OK.

The bounding box of a page is the smallest rectangular region 
that includes all the text and graphics on that page. Cropping 
to the bounding box of a page eliminates extraneous white space 
at the margins of the page. The media box of a page is the 
original size of that page.

To crop the current page or all pages to the bounding box of the 
page:
1.  Choose Plug-Ins > Super Crop > Crop Page(s) to 
    Bounding Box.
2.  Click Current to crop only the current page, or click 
    All to crop all pages.
3.  If you chose to crop all pages, click Each to crop 
    each page to its own bounding box, or click Biggest to crop all 
    pages to the largest bounding box of all the pages.

To restore a cropped page to the media box of that page:
1.  Choose Plug-Ins > Super Crop > Reset Page(s) to Media 
    Box.
2.  Click Current to restore only the current page, or 
    click All to restore all cropped pages.

To revert to the last saved version of your PDF document:
Choose File > Revert.

To see the original size of a cropped page, choose View > Actual 
Size. The red line represents the media box -- the original size 
of the page. You can hide the media box by choosing Plug-Ins > 
Super Crop > Hide Media Box.

Super Crop adds a Revert command to the File menu. The command 
reverses all changes made to the PDF document since it was last 
saved. However, you cannot revert PDF documents opened from 
within container applications (e.g., Lotus Notes) if the 
document has not yet been saved.

The Super Crop tool and menu items are unavailable in PDFs with 
an owner password and the Changing the Document property set to 
"Not Allowed." To crop such a document, recreate or resave the 
PDF document so that the Changing the Document property is set to
 "Allowed." For information about PDF security and the Changing 
the Document property, see pages 199-201 in the Adobe Acrobat 
Exchange 3.0 Online Guide.

If you hold down the Ctrl key while selecting the Super Crop 
tool, the bounding box of the page will become the crop marquee. 
If you continue to hold down Ctrl while you click on another 
tool, the crop marquee will be retained. This enables you to 
zoom in on the crop region.

You cannot rotate the crop marquee. Crop regions must be a 
minimum of 1 inch by 1 inch and a maximum of 45 inches by 45 
inches.
