About Crop PDF
Crop PDF lets you trim and resize the visible area of any PDF page. Remove excessive margins, cut away unwanted borders, trim whitespace from scanned documents, or focus on a specific region of a page.
The visual cropping interface shows a live preview of your adjustments. Set the crop area by dragging handles or entering precise dimensions. Apply the same crop to all pages at once or adjust each page individually for documents with mixed layouts.
All processing runs entirely in your browser — your files never leave your device. The original content outside the crop area is removed from the output, producing a cleaner, more focused document.
