The offset are accumulative (so crop < trim < bleed < art). In Haralds case cropoffset=auto should be enough. The default crop and trimbox handling is unchanged (as it would complicate my own workflows and also breaks compatibility) so one really needs to set this when it's needed. The already present interactionscreen cropping is unchanged.
Hi Hans, thank you very much for looking into that!
I wikified the box information plus your example at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/PDF_Boxes
Unfortunately, the order (crop < trim < bleed < art) is not so good, it should be (art < crop < trim < bleed) - as I wrote, in PDF/X, ArtBox must be the same as TrimBox, if defined at all. Would you please fix this?
(I don’t know any use of ArtBox - it was meant for imposition, but software will probably look for page contents itself, since ArtBox is mostly undefined.)
Greetlings, Hraban
