Crop a PDF: step by step

Trim PDF margins or change the visible page area. Crop one page or all pages at once. Free online, no watermark.

  1. 1

    Upload your PDF

    Drop in a document and the crop screen opens with three ways to work. Files are deleted after 2 hours.

  2. 2

    Choose how to crop

    Automatic trims the same box of margins on every page — one clean size all through. Automatic maximum crop hugs each page's own content, as tight as it can. Preview pages & select hands you the box to adjust.

    Choose an option: the Automatic, Automatic maximum crop and Preview pages & select cards in a row, above the Continue button
  3. 3

    Fine-tune and crop

    The box opens already hugging the page's content — drag it or its handles, or type Top / Width / Height / Bottom / Left / Right in inch, cm or points; Auto-crop snaps it back to the ink at any time. Blended keeps one box over every page, Page by page gives each page its own (Apply to all copies it down the stack), and Odd & even keeps a box per side of a spread. Press Crop PDF — content outside the box is hidden, not deleted.

    The crop editor: Preview mode with Blended, Page by page and Odd & even; the margin boxes Top, Width, Height, Bottom, Left, Right with the inch/cm units and the Auto-crop link; the page with its crop box; and the Crop PDF bar
  • Three ways in

    One automatic trim for all pages, a tight per-page trim, or hand-picked areas.

  • Type or drag the box

    Drag the box and its handles on the page, or type exact values in inch, cm or points.

  • Auto-crop

    One click snaps the box back to the page's own content — used when the editor opens.

  • One box, per page, or odd & even

    Blended, Page by page and Odd & even previews — Apply to all copies a page's box down the stack.

  • Hidden, not deleted

    Content outside the crop area is hidden but stays in the file — the screen says so itself.

  • Private by default

    No account, no watermark — and every file is automatically deleted after 2 hours.

Private and short-lived: every upload is erased automatically 72 hours after you last open it.

What the other tools do

Split by pages

Splits a document by page ranges you write yourself — one group per line. Each group becomes its own file, named from a pattern such as [BASENAME]-[CURRENTPAGE].

Extract Pages

Produces a new PDF containing only the pages you choose, either by typing a range or by tapping thumbnails. Bookmarks that point at the kept pages travel with the extract.

Rotate

Turns pages by 90, 180 or 270 degrees and saves the orientation into the file, so every viewer and printer agrees.

Split by text

Starts a new document every time the text at the top of a page changes. Statements, invoices and reports that repeat a heading per section separate themselves.
