About Crop PDF & Edge Cases
Trim excess white margins or printer bleed marks from your PDF pages by setting exact top, right, bottom, and left crop insets in points. Crop PDF updates both CropBox and MediaBox coordinates on target pages via @cantoo/pdf-lib.
- Apply uniform margin insets across all pages at once or crop only a specific page range.
