Resize Pages features

Nothing gets cropped

Pages are scaled in proportion, so you won’t lose headers or footers.

Stays sharp

Scaling is applied as an instruction rather than by redrawing, so text and line art don’t go blurry.

Links keep working

Clickable areas move and shrink along with the content.

Small pages can stay small

Tick “Don’t enlarge smaller pages” and, say, an A5 page is centred on A4 at its own size instead of being blown up.

US Letter to A4 (and back)

Letter is 216 × 279 mm. A4 is 210 × 297 mm: narrower and taller. Print a Letter PDF on A4 at actual size and the sides can clip; go the other way and the footer often vanishes. Resizing the PDF itself means it prints properly for everyone without them fiddling with printer settings.

Because the shapes differ, you’ll get a thin border on two sides after resizing. That’s expected. If you’re curious how points relate to millimetres, our guide to PDF page sizes explains it.

Privacy and security

The PDF’s resized on your device and isn’t uploaded. You download a new copy and the original’s left as it was.
