Crop PDF for photographers
Updated July 2026
Arthize lets photographers and studios 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 photographers crop a PDF
A photographer combines a gallery of images into one PDF proof, watermarks the previews, and compresses the file so the client can open it on their phone.
Built for proof sheets. Whether it's proof sheets, galleries, contracts, Arthize's crop pdf keeps the work inside your private workspace. Client shoots and unreleased galleries are confidential; private processing protects them.
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.
