++Here are more details about the bb and xbb formats:
++.PP
++The original ebb (from dvipdfm) ignored density information in bitmap
++images, and generated bounding boxes with 100px = 72bp = 1in.
++Unfortunately, screenshots (especially) tend to look bad with this
++approach.
++.PP
++So, extractbb (from dvipdfmx) uses density information if present.
++Otherwise, it generates bounding box with 100px = 100bp. This is what
++pdfTeX does.
.SH "BUGS"
+ .PP
+ There is currently no way to specify which bounding box is taken
