Crop The Visible Page Box

Crop PDF adjusts each page's visible crop box using pdf-lib after rendering local previews with PDF.js. This is useful for trimming scanner borders, slide margins, or excess whitespace without uploading the file.

Not A Redaction Tool

Cropping is visual trimming, not forensic redaction. Content outside the visible page box may still exist inside the PDF. For sensitive disclosure, use a dedicated redaction workflow and verify the final file.

Signature And Form Caveats

Any PDF rewrite can affect signatures, forms, annotations, bookmarks, or advanced document structures. Keep the original and compare the cropped output before sending official documents.

FAQ

Does cropping remove hidden PDF content permanently?

No. Cropping changes the visible page box, but content outside that box may still remain inside the PDF file. Do not use crop as forensic redaction.

Can cropping break signatures or forms?

Yes. Any PDF rewrite can invalidate digital signatures and may affect interactive forms or annotations. Keep the original when signature validity matters.

Is my PDF uploaded for cropping?

No. Page previews, crop settings, and PDF writing all happen in your browser. Convertful does not receive your PDF.

Can I crop each page differently?

This Phase 2 cropper applies the same top, right, bottom, and left percentages to every page so the output stays predictable.

What if my crop margins are too large?

Convertful prevents exports when the crop would leave an unusably small page area. Reduce the percentages and try again.
