Crop PDF for architects
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets architecture teams crop a PDF in a private workspace — free, with no watermark. Cropping a PDF trims the margins or unwanted edges of pages, so scans and oversized layouts fit cleanly on screen and in print.
Why architects crop a PDF
An architect merges plan sheets and schedules into one issue set, compares two drawing revisions for changes, and exports key sheets to images for a client presentation.
Built for plan sets. Whether it's plan sets, schedules, specifications, Arthize's crop pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Designs and client plans are proprietary; private processing protects the practice's work.
What matters when you crop a PDF
Cropping changes the visible page box without deleting page content permanently.
It is useful for tightening scans with wide margins.
You can apply the same crop across every page.
