None if you stick to pt (1/72 in) as a unit for -x, -y etc.

But, if you want to specify -x, -y, et.al. in a different scale, the resolution
parameter helps. I use pdftoppm to find the right area, then transfer the same
options (including resolution) over to the patched pdftotext, and voila: the
text appears, without me needing to recalculate offsets.
