Crop PDF
Cut the margins off PDF pages, set by hand or detected automatically, on all pages or only some.
Your files are processed in your browser and never uploaded.
Margins to cut off, as a percentage of the page. The preview shows page 1.
Cropping changes the visible page area; text and images stay sharp. The parts outside the new edges are hidden, not deleted, so do not rely on cropping to remove sensitive content: use Redact PDF for that.
Crop PDF
Wide white margins waste space on a phone screen, on an e-reader and on paper. Crop PDF trims them: set the top, right, bottom and left margins with the sliders while you watch the preview, or let the tool detect the margins from the content of the first pages. Apply the crop to every page or only to the pages you choose. Text and images stay sharp because nothing is converted.

Frequently asked questions
- Does cropping delete the content outside?
- No, it is hidden. The page shows only the cropped area, but the original content is still in the file. To remove sensitive content for good, use Redact PDF.
