How to crop a PDF

Open your PDF, drag a box around the area you want to keep, and click Crop — the same trim is applied to every page. Perfect for cutting off scanner borders, punch-hole shadows and oversized margins before sharing or printing.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping delete the trimmed content?

Cropping sets the visible area of each page; the content outside it is hidden in viewers and print. To permanently destroy hidden content, use Redact PDF instead.

Can I crop each page differently?

This tool applies one crop to all pages, which covers the common case of uniform scanner margins. For page-level control, split the PDF first and crop the parts separately.

Will cropping reduce quality?

No — nothing is re-rendered. The page content is untouched; only the visible frame changes.
