Hi,
I use OmniGraffle to make lots of PDF diagrams for homework. The problem is that the page size is never the exact size of my diagram. At the moment, I'm opening up the PDF in illustrator and manually adjusting the document size, little by little, and then resaving as a PDF. It seems like there would be a program out there that crops PDFs down to the needed area. Any advice?

Thanks,
gabe

I don't have a lot of experience with this, but I do know the Adobe Acrobat does let you crop PDFs.

There are many front end applications for LaTeX and most of those installations include tool to do what you want, I think. You should be able to tell the page size, etc.
