Can I remove crop marks using Adobe Acrobat Pro XI?

Yes. You can use the crop pages feature and then sanitation to remove data outside the cropped region.

'View' > 'Show/Hide' > 'Navigation Panes' > 'Content'

This allows me to find and delete just the marks without cropping the document.

    in Adobe Acrobat DC I found the following option, worked like a charm:

    open your pdf

    go to Print Production

    go to Preflight

    select the Library: Prepress, Color and Transparency

    click in the little tool icon (wrench) and then search for the word 'Crop' in the search bar

    select the preset 'Set Cropbox to Trimbox'

    click on the button 'Fix' at the bottom

    happy cropping...

      This is what I did ,

      1- go to VIEW - TOOLS, don't select anything from the drop down menu just release and this will open the tools window on the right hand side.

      2- Select PAGES

      3- Select CROP, then over the document manually crop the area you need. This will create a red line around the area.

      4-Double click on the red line

      5- This screen will pop up. You can now refine the crop using the fields. Make SURE that ALL PAGES are selected on the bottom right if you want this crop to apply to the entire document.  Took me a while to figure this out DUH.

      The crops are still there but not visible.

      To be clear, this is only one answer to the question, not the correct answer. I'm searching for the an answer to this same question but a more literal interpretation. Which is how do I delete the crop marks from a document instead of just blocking them out? (this may not be possible with acrobat, in which case, the answer is indeed correct.

        Yes you can remove crop marks instead of just blocking them out, or cropping them out. You use the View > Navigation Panels > Content box. But I can't find this is in Acrobat CC.


        In Acrobat XI open the Print Production panel. Select Edit Object. Click on the crops and delete. (you might have to do this twice to remove the white and the black crop)
