About Crop PDF
Trim a fixed margin off every edge of a PDF's pages, hiding scanner borders or excess white space without touching the underlying content.
What the result contains
A PDF with the same pages and content but a smaller visible crop box on every edge.
Supported formats
How to use Crop PDF
- Open the PDF and preview how the current margins look on a sample page.
- Set one crop amount that applies evenly to all four edges.
- Preview a few different pages, since dimensions can vary across a scanned batch.
- Export the cropped PDF and confirm no wanted content was cut off.
Practical example
Hide 24 points of scanner border from all four sides of every page in a scanned packet.
When to use Crop PDF
- Remove a scanner's black border from a batch of digitized pages
- Tighten oversized margins before printing a document booklet-style
- Standardize inconsistent page framing across pages scanned on different devices
Important limitations
- One uniform margin is applied to every page.
- Cropping changes the visible page area; it does not securely delete hidden content outside the crop box.
Troubleshooting Crop PDF
Useful content is cut off
Reduce the crop amount and inspect pages with different dimensions before sharing the result.
