Good to know
Cropping removes wide white margins, scanner borders and anything around the part you actually need, such as one receipt on a full A4 scan. Trimmed pages are easier to read on phones and look cleaner when printed.
With All pages, one crop is used on every page, which suits scans and slides that share a layout. Choose Page by page to set a different crop for each page; pages you don't touch stay as they are.
Cropping changes the visible area of each page without re-saving anything, so text stays sharp and selectable. The trimmed parts are hidden rather than erased, so don't rely on cropping to remove private information.
Frequently asked questions
How do I crop a PDF?
Drop the PDF in, drag a box over the part of the page to keep, and download. Choose All pages to crop every page the same way.
How do I remove white margins from a PDF?
Drag the box in to the edge of the content and crop all pages at once.
Can I crop just one page?
Yes. Choose Page by page, go to that page with the arrows and set the crop. Other pages stay untouched.
Does cropping reduce quality?
No. The page content isn't re-saved, so text and images stay exactly as sharp.
Is cropped content deleted?
No, it's hidden outside the new page edges. To remove private details for good, use Redact PDF instead.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. The new page edges are set by your browser, so the PDF stays on your device.
