What Crop PDF does
Crop PDF is a free online utility hosted on Ezgif that removes unwanted margins from PDF document pages. Users upload a PDF file, specify the desired margin size, and the tool trims the excess space around images and content, reframing each page to retain the core material while eliminating unnecessary white space. The result is a trimmed PDF that is smaller in file size and easier to read on various screens, suitable for scanned documents, reports, or academic papers. The service processes files entirely within the browser, ensuring no upload to external servers is required beyond the initial file selection.

Crop PDF FAQ
