Trim margins from every page, by percentage.
Your file stays in this browser.
You don't have to take this on faith:
- Open your browser's developer tools (F12, or right-click → Inspect) and click the Network tab.
- Select a file and use this tool as normal.
- Watch the Network tab — no request fires when you select, process, or download. If your file were being sent anywhere, it would show up there.
About Crop PDF pages
Set how much to trim off the top, bottom, left, and right as a percentage of the page — useful for removing scanner margins, cutting off a header or footer, or tightening up whitespace before printing. A live preview on the first page shows roughly what you're about to cut before you commit.
Common uses
- Removing wide scanner margins from a scanned document.
- Cropping out a header or footer that doesn't need to be there.
- Trimming a PDF down to just its content area before printing.
Common questions
Does cropping remove content permanently, or just hide it?
Cropping changes a page's visible boundary — content outside the new boundary won't display or print in most readers, but the underlying content can still exist outside that boundary. For anything sensitive, use the editor's Redact tool instead, which genuinely removes content rather than just hiding it.
Can I preview the crop before applying it?
Yes — the tool shows a live preview on the first page as you adjust the margins, before you commit to anything.
