Question

CROP PDF files permanently.

Hi everyone, I usually use the crop white margins command, but this function DOES NOT permanently delete the excess borders from the file, as it is always possible to go back. I don't like this because I then use a third-party program that counts the surface dimensions of my PDF. This program always detects the original size even if my PDF file has been cropped. I found a site where it can remove the white borders permanently, but it is very inconvenient to load 20 files at a time every time and then if they are heavy the waiting time becomes too long. I imagine this site uses ACROBAT commands and so I wonder if they can do this job because I can't do the final cutting of the white edges with the same ACROBAT PRO tool?

There's no way ACROBAT isn't so powerful that it can do a very trivial thing.

Hi there

 

Hope you are doing well.

 

You can adjust the visible page area using the Crop Pages tool and the Set Page Boxes dialog box. Cropping pages can help you create consistency within a PDF composed of pages of different sizes.

 

For more information, please go through the help page https://adobe.ly/3uu1gDS and see if that works.
