Cropping a PDF page changes the visible area (the CropBox) without discarding content — the underlying MediaBox stays the same, so users can reveal the original if needed. This tool lets you draw a crop rectangle on a preview, apply to every page or specific ones, and download the result. Great for stripping scanner borders, removing headers/footers, or focusing on a specific column of text.
Visual crop selector
The first page is rendered as an interactive canvas. Drag the crop rectangle to the region you want to keep. Corner handles for resizing. The tool shows the exact mm/point coordinates so you can crop to a spec (e.g., print margins).
Apply modes
All pages: same crop for every page — fastest common case. Odd/even: different crops for facing pages (useful for book scans with different inner/outer margins). Per-page: draw a unique crop on each page.
CropBox vs. destructive crop
By default the crop is a CropBox update — non-destructive. Content outside the crop is hidden but preserved and can be revealed by any tool that resets the CropBox. Toggle Destructive crop to actually delete content outside the crop, which reduces file size when scans have huge margins.
