What it does

Briss crops PDF pages by overlaying similar pages so common margins are visible. The reviewed Briss 2.0 continuation also offers row and column splitting.

Odd/even page overlays help crop a scanned book whose inner and outer margins differ. Draw crop regions around shared content, or use the command line when automatic detection is appropriate. An omitted destination produces a new _cropped.pdf file; row and column split options divide pages into halves. This independently developed Briss 2.0 continuation remains alpha with missing features and needs Java 8 or later, so evaluate an important document on a copy.

Strengths

  • Groups similar and odd/even pages to guide consistent cropping.

Watch out for

  • The reviewed Briss 2.0 continuation is labeled alpha and has missing features.
