New with BookPrintXP version

The
following functions have been added:
- Adjust Document Margins: In
many cases the margins of a page are actually larger than the margins
defined by the Margins setting
(BookPrint Margins). Thus the pages are
displayed smaller than expected. The margins are larger than the BookPrint Margins, because the margins of an
application (Document Margins) are added to the BookPrint
Margins. For example you may have specified
margins with the WinWord application before printing to the BookPrint printer. These Document Margins are being
displayed within the frame of the BookPrint
Margins. With the new function Adjust
Document Margins the pages are adapted to the BookPrint
Margins. The program then computes the surrounding white stripes of all
pages and removes them.

Adjust Doc.Margins commands
