PDF export with size of the exported diagram

+3 votes

Currently, no matter how small the diagram is, the page size is always an entire DIN A4 page (with the exported diagram centered on it).

It would be nice, if the PDF's "page" size could adapt to the actual size of the exported diagram, i.e. become smaller than A4.
In particular, this would facilitate using (importing) the exported PDF in other documents.

Under linux you can use natively pdfcrop to trim the diagram. But if you use the trimmed diagram in latex documents you have to scale it manually to fit the text in lables to the document text.
