Crop PDF

100% in your browser
No limits

Drop a PDF, drag a rectangle on the preview to keep just that area. Use one crop for every page or a different crop per page. Files never leave your device.

How it works

  1. Drop a PDF into the upload area and wait for the large preview to render.
  2. Drag a rectangle on the preview to mark the area you want to keep. Drag the handles to resize, or drag inside to move it. Choose 'Square' to constrain it.
  3. Pick 'Every page (one crop)' to apply the same area everywhere, or 'Each page individually' to draw a different crop per page.
  4. Use the page arrows or the filmstrip to move between pages and check the crop.
  5. Click 'Crop PDF' to download. Everything stays on your device — nothing is uploaded.

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping delete the content outside the area?

Cropping sets each page's CropBox — the visible region every viewer and printer honors. The data outside is hidden, not re-encoded, so quality is untouched and the change is clean.

Can I use a different crop on each page?

Yes. Choose 'Each page individually', then navigate with the arrows or filmstrip and draw a crop on each page you want to trim. Pages you leave alone keep their full size.

How do I crop to a perfect square?

Switch the shape to 'Square' before dragging. The selection stays square as you draw or resize from a corner.

Does it work on rotated pages?

Yes — the crop you draw on the preview maps to the right region even when a page has a 90°, 180°, or 270° rotation.

Are my files uploaded?

No. The preview and the crop both run locally in your browser. Your PDF never leaves your device.
