About the Crop PDF
Crop PDF pages visually or trim white margins automatically, on one page or all of them. Text stays selectable and nothing is re-compressed. Runs in your browser — no upload.
PDF pages have several boxes that define their size. This tool sets the crop, media, trim and bleed boxes to your selection, which viewers and printers respect. Rotated pages are handled automatically, so the area you draw is the area you get.
Crop PDF is part of a free, privacy-first toolkit. Your files are handled entirely in the browser with pdf-lib and PDF.js, so nothing is uploaded to a server and there are no page or size limits.
Because crop pdf works without any sign-up or installation, you can use it as often as you like and it's always available — on desktop or mobile, and even offline.
