How to Remove a Header or Footer from a PDF
Crop away page headers, footers, or page numbers from a PDF. Free, precise margin-based cropping.
To remove headers or footers from a PDF, crop the top or bottom margin to cut them off. FixMyPDF lets you set exact margin values.
Steps for Footer Removal
Go to fixmypdf.in/tools/crop-pdf. Upload. Set a bottom crop margin large enough to cover the footer area (typically 10–25mm). Apply to all pages. Download.
Steps for Header Removal
Same process but set a top crop margin. Check a few pages to ensure the header area is fully cropped without cutting into content.
When Cropping Is Not Enough
If the header/footer contains important metadata you want to preserve elsewhere, or if the content is too close to the margin, use FixMyPDF redact to cover it with a white box instead of cropping.
