Is cropping permanent?

Cropping hides content outside the crop area but doesn't actually delete it from the file. Some advanced PDF software may be able to recover cropped content.

Can I crop each page differently?

Yes, you can define a different crop area for each page, or apply the same crop to all pages.

Does it affect content quality?

No, cropping doesn't reprocess content. Text and images remain at original quality — only page boundaries change.

Cannot undo in the output file. Keep a copy of the original file as backup. You can re-crop with different dimensions from the original.

What is the difference between crop and redact?

Crop changes page boundaries and hides content (but it remains in file). Redact permanently removes selected content from file — more secure for sensitive information.

💡To extract a table from a page: select only the table area then crop.
💡Cropping doesn't actually delete content — it hides it. Some programs may recover it.
💡If cropping for security (removing sensitive info), use the "Redact" tool instead of crop.
💡To save paper when printing: crop excess margins to enlarge content on the page.
