* Clone page boxes:
* Import a PDF page, and clone all of its ArtBox, TrimBox, BleedBox, CropBox,
* and MediaBox entries.
*
* Note: You can visualize the page boxes in Acrobat as follows:
* Choose "Edit, Preferences, General, Page Display, Page Content and
* Information" and select "Show art, trim & bleed boxes".
* This setting creates colored rectangles which indicate the size of the
* art, trim, and bleed boxes.
*
* Required software: PDFlib+PDI/PPS 9
* Required data: PDF document
