Crop PDF

Yes, PDF cropping works the same way as image cropping, so if you’re familiar with the process, there’s no learning curve. You can PDF crop a document the same way you'd crop a photo. Just draw a rectangle around the part you want to keep, and everything outside it gets removed. The result is a clean, trimmed page.

Your choice. The crop a PDF tool lets you apply the same crop to every page in one go, or pick individual pages and crop each one differently. This is handy when your document has different layouts across pages.

No Acrobat needed. PDFCap's crop PDF online tool does this entirely in the browser. Open it, upload your file, set the crop area, and download. Done.

Sometimes. Cropping removes content from the margins, which can cut file size if there are images or large elements in those areas. The impact varies by document. For bigger reductions, run the file through PDFCap's compressor afterward.

Yes, it’s free and safe to crop a PDF online. PDFCap offers crop PDF free for standard cropping tasks. We encrypt your files during upload and delete them automatically after processing.
