Crop PDF for freelancers
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets freelancers and independent professionals 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 freelancers crop a PDF
A freelancer exports an invoice to PDF so it can't be edited, merges it with a proposal into one client packet, signs the contract on screen, and sends everything — without paying for Acrobat.
Built for invoices. Whether it's invoices, proposals, contracts, Arthize's crop pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. A freelancer's client contracts and invoices are private business records that don't belong on a free public server.
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.
