Crop a PDF File Online
Upload your PDF and drag crop handles to define the visible area of each page. Or enter exact margin values (top, bottom, left, right) for precise trimming. The cropped result shows only the content you want - everything outside the crop boundary is hidden.
Trim PDF Margins and White Borders
Many PDFs have oversized white margins from print settings or scanning. Trim them to make the content fill the page. Cropped PDFs look better on screen, waste less paper when printed, and fit better in presentations or embedded documents.
Crop All Pages or Individual Pages
Apply the same crop to every page for uniform results, or set different boundaries per page when layouts vary. Navigate through pages and adjust each one. Useful for documents where some pages are landscape and others portrait.
Crop Scanned Pages Before OCR
Scanned documents often have dark edges or uneven borders from the scanner glass. Crop those artifacts out before running OCR PDF - clean page boundaries produce significantly better text recognition results.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I crop a PDF file?
Upload your PDF, drag the crop handles to define the visible area (or enter margin values), and download the cropped result.
Can I crop all pages at once?
Yes. Set the crop and apply it uniformly to all pages, or adjust each page individually.
Can I remove the white borders from a scanned PDF?
Yes. Crop inward to remove the excess white or dark borders that scanners produce.
Does cropping reduce file size?
Not significantly. Cropping hides content but the data remains in the file. For size reduction, use Compress PDF.
Will cropping affect text selection?
Text outside the crop area is hidden but may still be selectable in some viewers. For permanent removal, use Redact PDF.
Can I crop a PDF without losing quality?
Yes. Cropping only adjusts the visible boundary. No re-encoding happens - text, images, and fonts stay identical.
Can I undo the crop?
Your original file is never modified. Some PDF viewers can also reset crop boxes to restore original dimensions.
Is my file uploaded to a server?
No. Everything runs in your browser. Your PDF never leaves your device.
