About this tool

What Crop PDF does

Crop PDF is an online tool that trims margins from PDF document pages, allowing users to remove unnecessary white space for better readability or reduced file size. The result is a trimmed PDF where the visible frame changes but the underlying content remains untouched, preserving text selectability and image quality. Users can choose between auto-detecting margins or manually defining the crop area by dragging a box or entering exact measurements in millimeters or inches. The processed file stays entirely on the user's device with no uploads, sign-up, or watermarks.

Questions

Crop PDF FAQ

Will cropping a PDF reduce its file size?
Cropping changes the visible frame but the underlying content stays, so file size reduction depends on how much white space was removed and whether the trim actually deletes embedded data.
Can I crop just specific pages of a multi-page PDF?
Yes, you can crop every page, a range, or each page individually.
Is the cropped PDF still editable?
Yes, the tool preserves text selectability and image quality, so the cropped PDF remains fully editable and readable.
Do I need to create an account to use the crop function?
No, the service is free and does not require sign-up; files are processed locally in your browser without uploads.
