Frequently asked questions

Is cropped content deleted?

The visible page area is changed; the hidden content usually stays in the file, so do not rely on cropping to remove sensitive information.

Are all pages cropped the same?

Yes. The same margins are removed from every page, based on the preview of the first page.
