About cropping a PDF

Cropping trims the visible edges of every page — perfect for tightening up scanned documents, cutting off wide white borders, or removing a repeated header or footer band. The numbers are percentages of each page's own size, so the same crop looks right whether your pages are A4, US Letter, or a mix.

We preview page one so you can see exactly what you're keeping, then apply the identical crop to the rest of the file. Nothing is thrown away permanently: cropping sets each page's crop box, so the trimmed edges simply sit outside the visible area. The text and images inside stay perfectly sharp — this isn't a re-scan or a screenshot, it's the original content with a tighter frame.

🔒 Your PDF is read and rewritten entirely on your own device. It is never uploaded, and we never see it.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does cropping a PDF actually do?
It trims away the margins around the edge of each page, so the visible area is tighter. The same trim is applied to every page at once.
Can I crop each page differently?
No — the crop you set is applied evenly to every page. This keeps a document looking consistent, which is what most people want when trimming margins.
How do I know how much I'm trimming?
You set how much to shave off each side as a percentage, and page one updates live so you can see exactly what will be kept before you download.
Does cropping delete the trimmed content for good?
The trimmed area is hidden from view in the new file. It's best to keep your original if you might need the full pages back later.
Will cropping make the file much smaller?
Not usually. Cropping changes what's shown on each page, but it doesn't strip out the underlying content, so the file size stays roughly the same.
Is my PDF uploaded anywhere?
No. Everything runs entirely in your browser on your own device. Your file is never uploaded and we never see it.
