When Is Cropping a PDF Useful?
For example:
- Make a paper or ebook easier to read on a phone.
- Cut the scanner border off a W-2 before you email it.
How Do I Get a Clean Crop?
Check pages with Prev and Next. If a footer gets cut, pick Medium.
Is My PDF Uploaded?
No. Crop PDF works in your browser tab with the open-source pdf-lib library; the file never reaches a PDFdukan server. The page still loads analytics and ads.
What Cropping Doesn’t Do
Cropping hides the outside area; it doesn’t delete it. Password-locked PDFs need Unlock PDF before saving a crop.
