What is PDF Cropping?
PDF cropping adjusts the visible boundaries of a page, trimming content outside the selected area. It is commonly used to remove large white margins from scanned documents, eliminate borders from exported files, or focus a page on the most important content areas.

Understanding PDF Crop Boxes
PDF cropping modifies the CropBox property of each page, which tells PDF viewers which portion of the page to display. Content outside the crop area is hidden but technically preserved in the file structure, meaning the visible page area is adjusted rather than the raw content being deleted.
