Crop PDF Pages vs. Resize PDF Pages

Use Crop PDF Pages when you want to remove part of the visible page area or reduce unwanted margins around the content.

If you want to add extra space around the content instead of removing it, use Add Margins to PDF.

Frequently Asked Questions About Cropping PDF Pages

What does cropping a PDF page mean?

Cropping defines the area of the page that remains visible in the new PDF and excludes space outside the selected crop area.

Can cropping remove page content?

Yes. If the crop area is set too tightly, some visible content may be excluded. Review the crop boundaries carefully before using the resulting file.

Can I remove white margins from a PDF?

Yes. Cropping can be used to reduce white space around page content when the tool allows you to define the appropriate crop area.

Does cropping change the page size?

The visible page area or resulting page dimensions may change depending on how the crop is applied. If you need a specific page size, use Resize PDF Pages instead.

Does cropping reduce text or image quality?

Cropping is not intended to recompress the page content or reduce quality. It changes the visible page area rather than the underlying content quality.

Is the original PDF changed?

No. A new PDF is created after cropping, while the original file remains unchanged on your device.

When is cropping a PDF useful?

It is useful when a document has large margins, excessive white space, or when you want the page to focus more closely on a specific content area.

Do I need to install additional software?

No. The tool works directly in your web browser.
