+.PP 
+.SH "DESCRIPTION" 
+.PP 
+For each
+.SM JPEG\c
+,
+.SM PNG\c
+, or
+.SM PDF
+file given on the command line,
+.B extractbb
+extracts the bounding box information and writes it into a file with extension
+.BR .xbb ,
+together with some header information. These files can then be used by
+.B dvipdfmx
+or other programs. For
+.SM PDF
+files, the number of pages and the
+.SM PDF
+version number are reported as well.
+The input filename extension may be in upper or lower case.
+.PP
+If called as
+.BR ebb ,
+the output is written in the ``bb'' format (and with extension
+.BR .bb )
+as used by
+.BR dvipdfm .
+.B Xbb
+may be defined as a synomym for
+.B extractbb
+on your system.

+.SH "BUGS"
+.PP
+There is currently no way to specify which bounding box is taken
+for
+.SM PDF
+files. It will always be the first one from the following
+list: ArtBox, TrimBox, BleedBox, MediaBox. (Often only MediaBox
+is defined.) Moreover, the reported bounding box always refers
+to the first page in a
+.SM PDF
+file.
