How to use the Crop PDF
- Drop a PDF.
- Drag on the page to mark the area to keep, type margins in millimeters, or click Auto-trim.
- Choose whether it applies to all pages or only this one.
- Click Download cropped PDF.
Why crop a PDF?
Scans and exported slides often come with wide white borders that waste space on a phone or e-reader. Cropping to the content makes text bigger on small screens, fixes pages that print with uneven margins, and cuts headers or footers you don’t need. The crop changes the visible page area (the crop and media box); the text stays real, selectable text.
Private by design
Most online PDF services upload your document to their servers. This tool processes the file entirely in your browser with open-source libraries (pdf-lib and PDF.js), so contracts, invoices, bank statements and IDs never leave your device. It works offline once the page has loaded, and there are no file-count limits, watermarks or sign-ups.
Pages in the wrong orientation? Rotate PDF. Removing whole pages instead? Remove Pages from PDF.
