Hi
Thaks for your work in this useful extension.
I'd like to know if you considered applying the marks to a selection (using the bbox rectangle as limit) as an option.
Applying the marks to the artwork area is fine, but in certain situations you need to use the paper area as a container for several originals (for instance, placing front and rear of a brochure in a same document).
Of course there's an easy workaround, and it only takes to create a document sized as one of the originals and reuse the crop marks in the other, but crop marks to selection would be very useful anyway.
Another interesting feature would be using guides as placeholders for fold or die-punch marks.
