I have tested this on a couple of pdf files, but cannot see it working.  :(

Really? I wanted to give it a try next week. Could you try what the author does on this video?

I tested, it somehow "works", but not in the way I was expecting/wanting

it seems to treat pdf pages as photos and it crops them like that.

however, I want to treat them like doc files, where when you delete text or other blocks of data, all the below text moves up to fill the void

with pdfscissors you cant seem to be able to delete a part of a pdf page that doesn't expand to its full width and rearrange the left content automatically to fill the gap

Isn't that what Nitro Pro does? (though I've never tried it myself) If you do this often, why not just scan the PDF in something like ABBYY FineReader and then convert it back into PDF?

kilele:
I think it just changes the visibility region to be rendered by a pdf file, useful to improve the zoom tool when reading pdfs on tablets/mobile devices.

I do this often and thus, such procedure wont be convenient
moreover, that procedure is too lossy
