[scribus] Crop entire image.

[John Culleton]

The online LSI book cover template program creates and sizes a book 
cover image in eps format based on page count and paper type etc. 
provided by the user.  If one is submitting to LSI the entire 
template can be imported into Scribus and made the base layer.  After 
the cover is laid out it can be sent back to LSI. Very spiffy. No 
dimension calculations needed. 

But wait, there is more. The same template can be safely used for 
e.g., 360Digital Books. There is a slight difference in the allowance 
for cover thickness (about .008 inch) but that is trivial.

Unfortunately to use the same template for another printer there are 
additional areas around the template proper that need to be trimmed 
off.  I can of course import the .eps file into Gimp and crop it 
there but I would prefer to crop it in  Scribus. 

I found a way to crop an image frame in Scribus but not the whole 
page.  I need to remove exactly 1.25 in off the left edge and 1.75 
inch off the bottom.  

Is there a function similar to the Gimp crop function that works on 
the entire page?
