pdftoppm and pdf-cairo has the -cropbox option in order to "use the crop box
rather than media box" of a PDF. How about the trimBox?

Right now, in order to get a PDF cropped using the trimBox, one has first to
run `pdfinfo -box` on the PDF file, take note of the trimBox size which is in
points, and then play with `pdftoppm -x ## -y ## -W ## -H ##`, for example,
which are in pixels and hence dependent on the X/Y resolution in DPI being
used. Pretty convoluted…
