Crop PDF step by step
- Upload the PDF file
- Set margin values for top, bottom, left, and right
- Click the crop button
- Download the cropped PDF
When this tool helps
- Trim the white margins of scans or slides.
- Make pages easier to read on a phone or e-reader by removing wide margins.
- Crop only selected pages, for example a single scanned page with a dark edge.
Good to know
- Margins can be set in points, millimetres or inches.
- Cropping hides the edges; what lies outside the new page area stays in the file. To remove confidential content for good, use Redact PDF.
