Command line, PDF resizing & cropping

Hi

Could anybody tell me if it would be possible to perform actions such as PDF resizing and cropping on the command line with GIMP. I've used GIMP in the past andhad a brief read over the CLI introduction on gimp.org and it would seem to be possible however I couldn't find any more information.

If anybody has some example ways of doing this I'd be grateful.

Kind regards

I would use ImageMagick for this. This is really an outstanding set of tools one can
access via the command line (there's a basic GUI version implemented as well, which
can be accessed via the 'display' command).

HTH,

P.S.: Just take a look at the 'Usage' section on the IM web site. It's really amazing what one can do here.
