I am well aware of that. But, for instance, were I do work, when all 
we need is one color, we go through no third party printer, and make 
our own stuff. With this script, I will not need to run the image on, 
for instance, corel draw.

And eventually, one day, the Gimp shall become a software used by the 
printers themselves. When this day comes, the crop, register, 
density, and other marks have to be in place.

If you have crop marks in the rest of the book then the Gimp image can 
be inserted on a blank page and let the typesetting software do the 
crop marks.  That is how I would do it.  It's simple and foolproof.

The printers I work with generally don't require crop marks anyhow.
