Please make Crop Pages separate from Edit PDF again

I often need to just crop a page and not edit anything else. When you select Edit PDF it tries to recognize all the text and images and can cause the file to change fonts. I'm a printer and customers send me files with fonts I don't have. It's very frustrating. It would be nice to have the crop feature outside the Edit tool.   Thank you.

You just have to uncheck the "Recognize text" option in the Edit tools pane, so Acrobat will no longer try to do it:

 

 

 

Otherwise you can find the same tool for cropping in the Print Production pane (Set Page Boxes):

You can still Crop from Organize Pages. And also from Thumbnail view, as in all versions before. Tip: right click on the thumbnail.
