Cropping a PDF means redefining the page margins, eliminating excessive white space or isolating a specific section of the content. It is useful for standardising scanned documents with irregular margins, removing fixed headers, or adapting the format for printing.
OnlinePdfEditor shows an interactive preview where you can drag the crop borders on each page. You can apply the crop to all pages at once or customise it page by page.
Cropping modifies the visible boundaries of the page without deleting the underlying content: a useful feature if you want to restore the original margins in the future.
Cropping a PDF modifies the "crop box" of each page, i.e. the visible area. The removed margins are not visible in the resulting PDF, but the original content is not permanently deleted from the file structure.
PDF cropping hides content outside the selected area by modifying the crop box. To permanently remove content (e.g. for privacy) use the redaction tool.
Yes. You can apply the same crop to all pages in a single operation or set different areas for specific pages.
