Crop PDF pages with a visual box
Trim the visible page area on one page or the whole document.
Crop PDF now — free →Draw the rectangle you want readers to see, preview it on the real page and apply that frame to the current page or every page. Bindery writes a standards-based PDF CropBox, preserving vector text and image quality instead of turning the page into a screenshot.
Cropping changes the visible frame; content outside the frame can remain inside the file. It is not a security operation. Use Redact PDF when hidden content must be removed. Bindery runs entirely in your browser — your file is never uploaded, so there is nothing to delete from a server afterwards.
How it works
- Drop the PDF and open Crop pages
- Drag a box around the content that should remain visible
- Choose this page or every page, then download the cropped copy
Questions people ask
Does cropping delete everything outside the box?
No. A PDF CropBox tells viewers which area to display, but objects outside it can remain in the document. Do not use cropping to remove confidential information.
Will cropping make text blurry?
No. Bindery changes the page boundary without rasterizing ordinary page content, so text and vectors remain sharp.
Can I crop every page to the same margins?
Yes. Draw the frame once and choose Every page. Pages use the same fractional frame, which works well for consistent scans.
