What this tool does

Papiral crops PDF pages by adjusting the CropBox — the visible area of each page. Set margins in points (72pt = 1 inch) for each edge, and Papiral trims every page across your entire batch. Useful for removing excessive whitespace, cutting scanner borders, or trimming oversized margins.

Problems it solves

  • Removing excessive white margins from scanned documents
  • Trimming scanner border artifacts from a batch of PDFs
  • Cropping presentation PDFs to remove slide borders
  • Standardizing page dimensions across a batch of documents

Example

Frequently asked questions

Does cropping delete page content permanently?

Cropping sets the PDF's CropBox, which hides content outside the crop area. The underlying content is technically still in the file but not visible. Most PDF viewers respect the CropBox.

What unit are the margin values?

Values are in PDF points. 72 points = 1 inch, 28.35 points ≈ 1 centimeter.
