Formats and limitations

Sets the CropBox relative to its existing bounds. 72 points equal one inch. Rotated pages use the original page axes. Hidden content remains recoverable.

PDF input and output only. Up to 500 pages total; two-minute processing limit; 100 MiB output limit. Complex documents may fail even within these limits. Review the result before sharing.

Privacy and troubleshooting

Files and outputs stay in browser memory. Processing libraries and fonts load from Reqly; documents are not uploaded. Reset releases file references and cancels work. Downloads remain on your device.

If processing fails, try fewer files or a smaller, unencrypted PDF. The original is unchanged. No server fallback is used.

How local processing works
Is cropping safe for removing sensitive text?

No. Content outside the crop remains in the file. Do not use this as redaction.
