Crop PDF questions
How do I remove the white border from a scanned PDF?
Upload the PDF and press Auto-trim white margins. The box snaps to the printed part of the page. Adjust the corners if needed, then press Crop PDF.
Can I crop only one page?
Yes. Go to the page with the arrows, choose Only this page under Apply the crop to, and the other pages stay unchanged.
Will the text become blurry after cropping?
No. The tool changes the visible area of each page instead of turning it into an image, so text stays sharp and can still be searched and copied.
Is the cut-off part deleted?
It is hidden, like trimmed paper, but still inside the file. To fully remove private details, save the page with PDF to JPG, crop the image and make a new PDF.
My PDF has a password. Can I crop it?
Remove the password with Unlock PDF first, then crop the unlocked copy.
