Any way to crop page to the text boxes automatically?

Participant ,

Hi,

There is an old book I've downloaded from Archive.org.

They scan books as images using the archives machine they invented using cameras.

I can not set one unified size for the crop because pages are not scanned with care but just a quick scan.

I've extracted all pages to separate files, but when I open each page (each file in this case), I click on edit and then do the crop boxes for pages manually.

So I am wondering if there is any way, so I can open the file for editing and then run a shortcut or a script to do the crop boxes pages, but there is no preset for fixed sizes, so does there is any way that a script may check or scan the borders of the text boxes on the page, and do the crop with the far side of the page?

I mean, something like a script, a shortcut, or a preflight that scans the page and determines the margins that need to be removed so only text exists on the page.

For example, this is the page I am working on right now:

As you can see the text does already exist, so any way to do the crop and only keep the text boxes?

Thanks

Thanks,
Mohamed GadAllah
