-This package provides several macros to adjust boxed content.
-One purpose is to supplement the standard 'graphics' package, which defines the macros
-\resizebox, \scalebox and \rotatebox, with the macros \trimbox and \clipbox.
-The main feature is the general \adjustbox macro which extends the key=value
-interface of \includegraphics from the 'graphicx' package, and applies it to general text
-content.
-Additional provided box macros are \lapbox, \marginbox, \minsizebox, \maxsizebox and \phantombox.
+This bundle contains the the adjustbox package and its auxiliary packages trimclip and adjcalc.
+The initial purpose of adjustbox was to supplement the standard graphics/x package,

+An additional \marginbox macro is also provided.
+These macros are now placed in the dedicated package trimclip which is loaded by adjustbox.
+The package comes with clipping driver files are provided for pdftex (incl. LuaLaTeX), dvips and xetex. A

+The driver files got written by Joseph Wright (LaTeX3 project) and the package author.

+Both adjustbox and trimclip use the adjcalc package to allow for algebraic expressions for all length

+All macros use the authors other package collectbox to read the content as box and not as
