Crop PDF for lawyers
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets legal 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 lawyers crop a PDF
Before a filing, a paralegal merges statements and exhibits into one bundle, adds consistent page numbers for the court, and redacts personal data so nothing privileged leaks — all inside a private workspace rather than a free public converter.
Built for contracts. Whether it's contracts, court bundles, exhibits, Arthize's crop pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Client files are privileged. A contract or discovery packet uploaded to a stranger's ad-funded server is a confidentiality risk lawyers can't take.
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.
