pdfcrop

Detect and remove margins in each page in a PDF file. More information: https://github.com/ho-tex/pdfcrop.

  • Automatically detect and remove the margin for each page in a PDF file:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}

  • Set the margins of each page to a specific value:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} --margins '{{left}} {{top}} {{right}} {{bottom}}' {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}

  • Set the margins of each page to a specific value, using the same value for left, top, right and bottom:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} --margins {{300}} {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}

  • Use a user-defined bounding box for cropping instead of automatically detecting it:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} --bbox '{{left}} {{top}} {{right}} {{bottom}}' {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}

  • Use different user-defined bounding boxes for odd and even pages:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} --bbox-odd '{{left}} {{top}} {{right}} {{bottom}}' --bbox-even '{{left}} {{top}} {{right}} {{bottom}}' {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}

  • Automatically detect margins using a lower resolution for improved performance:

pdfcrop {{path/to/input_file.pdf}} --resolution {{72}} {{path/to/output_file.pdf}}
