Frequently Asked Questions
Does cropping permanently delete hidden content?
No. Cropping changes the visible PDF page boundary. Content outside that boundary can remain in the file and may be recoverable. Do not use this tool to redact confidential information.
Can I crop rotated pages or mixed page sizes?
Margins are measured from the displayed top, bottom, left and right edges, including page rotation. The same settings apply to each selected page. If a page would become smaller than 12.7 mm in either direction, the operation stops so you can reduce the margins or choose another range.
Will cropping make my file smaller?
Not necessarily. The page content is retained rather than rasterized or deleted, so file size may remain similar or increase. Use Compress PDF separately when file size matters.
Where is my PDF processed?
The crop is applied in this browser tab without document uploads. Use one unlocked PDF up to 30 MB and 100 pages. Documents with form or signature fields are rejected; save an unsigned flattened copy first.
