What is Crop PDF?

A Crop PDF tool trims the visible area of your pages. You draw a rectangle over a page preview to keep just the region you want, then apply that crop to one page or the whole document. The tool sets the PDF crop box with pdf-lib in your browser, removing wide margins or unwanted edges without uploading your file.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping delete the content outside the area?+

Cropping hides the area outside the crop box so it no longer displays or prints. The underlying content is retained in the file structure but falls outside the visible page, which is how the PDF standard defines cropping.

Can I crop every page the same way?+

Yes. After drawing your crop area, choose to apply it to all pages, and the same rectangle is used across the whole document.

Is my PDF uploaded to crop it?+

No. The crop box is set in your browser with pdf-lib, so your file never leaves your device. It is safe for confidential documents.

Will cropping reduce the quality of my pages?+

No. Cropping only changes the visible page boundaries. Text and images inside the kept area are untouched and lose no quality.

Can I crop different pages differently?+

Yes. Apply a crop to a single page at a time if pages need different areas, or use the same crop across all pages when they share the same layout.
