[bug #55107] PDFPIC: .psbb: support extraction of MediaBox from pdf files

[Deri James]

Follow-up Comment #13, bug #55107 (project groff):

Keith,

Sorry, you will have to help me here, if you want me to understand what you
meant.

> I am willing to pursue an extended lex/yacc implementation, (subject to Deri
actually answering the question I've now asked twice, without a response...

This implies to me that your pursuit of an extended lex/yacc implementation
which copes with pdf 1.5 extensions to the standard is subject to me answering
your question, i.e. it cannot be done until you receive the answer. This is
why it looks like you were claiming I was holding you up.

It is progress that you realised I was pointing you to Brendan's reference in
comment #4, not my silly mistake in the previous comment, I hope you have time
to read my answer to your cropbox question.

As to whether this ticket refers to PDFPIC or not: I think the answer is in
the title of the ticket and also the fact that you textually linked bug #61324
to this ticket in your email:-

https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/groff/2021-09/msg00057.html

I.E. That this original ticket would solve the problems with using pdfinfo
with PDFPIC, the email chain is even referenced in bug #61324.

As to what upsets me is the impression you gave that I had been unhelpful in
not answering your question, whereas it was lack of dilligence in not reading
an email which actually starts with "Hi Keith". I do try to be a helpful chap
because I have had so much help from so many people.

Cheers 

Deri
