Frequently Asked Questions about Crop PDF - Secure Edge & Margin Trimming

Is the content outside the crop box actually deleted?

Yes! Unlike most online tools that just 'hide' the margins with a mask, Convertify performs a 'Data-Level Crop' that permanently removes the objects outside your selection for security.

Can I crop different pages with different dimensions?

Yes. You can apply a universal crop to all pages or switch to 'Manual Mode' to set unique crop areas for individual pages in the same file.

Does it work well for scanned documents?

Perfectly. Our tool provides an auto-guide that helps you align the crop box with the text block of scanned pages, even if the scanning was slightly tilted.

Will this reduce the file's visual quality?

No. Cropping is a vector operation that changes the 'Media Box' of the PDF. Your images and text remain at their original high resolution.
