Description Josef Kufner 2014-11-06 19:05:08 UTC
When view is set to "Facing Pages" or similar multi-page layout, and "Trim Margins" is enabled, each page is trimmed to different size, which is distracting.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open any PDF which has partially filled pages
2. Enable "Trim Magins"
3. Switch to "Facing Pages" or similar view

Actual Results:  
When one page is full of text and next is only partially filled, the second page is much smaller.

Expected Results:  
The smaller page should be enlarged to size of the bigger page. No scaling, only do not trim all of the margin. Goal is to reduce margin, but keep book-like experience in Facing Pages view.

I would like an option to determine the amount of margin to trim as the minimum across all pages in the document. This would allow equal page sizes and equal zoom (inequal zoom can be distracting too).

351156 is possibly (indirect) solution for this.
