For bitmap based PDFs it would be possible to segment the document into words and images (just bounding boxes, not OCR), then "reflow" them to a different page size, by allocating less words per row.

Does anyone know if this kind of PDF reader exists? Such a PDF reflow reader would work on scanned old books.
