Crop white space from a PDF file

You can automatically crop white-space pixels from a PDF file as you upload it.

  1. Select the Crop menu and choose Trim.

  2. Specify the following options:

    • Trim Away Based On: Choose whether to crop based on color or transparency:

      • Color: Choose the Color option. Then select the Corner menu and choose the corner of the PDF with the color that best represents the white-space color you want to crop.

      • Transparency: Choose the Transparency option.

    • Tolerance: Drag the slider to specify a tolerance from 0 through 1.

    • Trimming based on color: Specify 0 to crop pixels only if they exactly match the color you selected in the corner of the PDF. Numbers closer to 1 allow for more color difference.

    • Trimming based on transparency: Specify 0 to crop pixels only if they are transparent; numbers closer to 1 allow for more transparency.
