Crop PDF
PDFDrag over the part of the page to keep, and trim one page or every page alike — in your browser, never uploaded.
Wide white margins that make a page tiny on a phone, a scanner's grey edge, a printed header you do not want in a presentation: cropping keeps the part of the page that matters. Drop the PDF in and it opens with Crop already chosen — drag over the part of the page to keep. The margins appear as numbers, in millimetres, inches or points, to set exactly, and Same margins on every page trims the whole document alike.
Cropping sets what each page shows: every PDF reader shows the cropped page, and prints it, but what lies outside is hidden, not deleted — someone with an editor can bring it back. To take something out of a PDF for good, use Redact PDF. The PDF is opened and saved in your browser, and never uploaded.

Frequently asked questions
Can I crop every page the same way?
Yes. Crop one page, then press Same margins on every page: each page gets the same margins, measured from its own edges.
Is the cropped part deleted?
No — it is hidden. Cropping tells every PDF reader which part of the page to show and print; the rest stays in the file, and an editor can bring it back. To remove names, numbers or pictures for good, use Redact PDF.
Can I set the margins exactly?
Yes. After dragging, the four margins are shown as numbers you can type over, in millimetres, inches or points.
Does cropping reduce the file size?
Not by itself, since nothing is deleted. To make the file smaller, use the PDF Compressor afterwards.
Is my PDF uploaded?
No. It is opened and saved in your own browser. Cropping is free; saving counts as one of the day's free runs.
