How it works

1. Upload your file

Drag and drop or choose a PDF file from your device. Everything is checked against its real file type before processing starts.

2. We process it

Your file runs through an isolated job dedicated to Crop PDF, with clear progress so you always know what stage it's at.

3. Download the result

Get your finished PDF file with one click. The original upload and the result are deleted automatically afterward.

What is Crop PDF?

Crop PDF trims a PDF down to a rectangular area you choose, removing unwanted margins or surrounding content. The page becomes smaller and anything outside the selected box is cut away.

Common uses

  • Removing scan borders. Trim shadows and edges from scanned pages.
  • Focusing on a section. Keep only a chart, table or drawing area.
  • Tightening margins. Reduce white space for easier reading on small screens.
  • Preparing assets. Cut a figure out of a page for reuse.

Tips for best results

  • The same box is applied to every page, so choose a box that works for all of them.
  • Preview the result to be sure nothing important was clipped.
  • Rotate pages first if some are sideways.
  • Keep your original; cropping is not reversible in the new file.

Your file stays private

Crop PDF runs in an isolated processing job. Your upload and the generated result are deleted automatically after your download window ends — we don't keep copies, and download links are random, single-purpose, and expire.
