How to Crop a PDF

  3. Apply the crop to that page or proportionally to all pages.
  4. Select Crop PDF, then download cropped.pdf.

Crop PDF Pages Visually

The page editor shows the PDF's current visible page boundary. Move the crop rectangle and use its handles to select the area that should remain visible.

Crop Individual PDF Pages

Each page keeps an independent crop selection. Apply a crop to one page, select another page, and choose a different visible area.

Apply the Same Crop to All Pages

Apply crop to all pages copies the active page's normalized proportions. Each page uses those proportions against its own current visible boundary, including portrait, landscape, rotated, custom-size, and offset pages.

Cropping Does Not Remove Hidden Content

Cropping changes the visible page area. Content outside the crop area may remain in the PDF file, including text, images, links, annotations, and form data. Cropping is not redaction and is not a secure way to remove sensitive information.

Saving a modified PDF may invalidate an existing digital signature. Preservation of advanced features such as bookmarks and attachments is not guaranteed.

PDF Page Boxes and Cropping

This tool changes each selected page's CropBox, which controls its visible page area. It does not intentionally change MediaBox, BleedBox, TrimBox, ArtBox, or page rotation, and it does not rasterize or rebuild pages.
