About Crop PDF
Cut away wide margins so a document reads better on a phone or e-reader, crop a scan to the paper, or keep only one part of a page. Draw the area on the preview, move its corners, type exact margins in millimetres, or let “Auto-trim” find the content for you. The same crop is applied to every page you choose.
How to crop a PDF
- Drop the PDF into the box, or click it to choose it.
- Drag a rectangle on the preview, type margins, or click “Auto-trim white margins”.
- Leave the page field empty to crop every page, or type the pages you want.
- Click “Crop PDF”, then save the cropped file.
Everything happens in your browser; nothing is uploaded. Very large files (over ~100 MB) can be slow on phones.
Frequently asked questions
Is my PDF uploaded to crop it?
No. TrustPDF runs entirely in your web browser using JavaScript. Your file is read and processed on your own device and is never sent to a server. The site's Content-Security-Policy does not allow the page to send anything to any other site, and you can check the open-source code on GitHub.
Is the cropped content deleted from the file?
No. Cropping sets the visible area of each page; the hidden parts stay in the file and could be restored with a PDF editor. To remove them for good, run the cropped PDF through Compress PDF with the Strong setting, which rebuilds the pages as images.
Can I crop just one page?
Yes. Type its number in “Pages to crop”. The crop you draw on the preview is used for every page you list.
Can I crop pages of different sizes?
Yes. The margins are scaled to each page's size, so a crop drawn on an A4 page is applied proportionally to a Letter page.
