Good to know

  • Content is scaled as it is, not re-rendered, so text stays sharp and selectable.
  • Scale to fit keeps each page's proportions, so when the shapes differ (Letter to A4, say) you get white space on two sides.
  • Match each page keeps landscape pages landscape and portrait pages portrait.
  • Links, comments and form fields move with the content. Links that jump to a spot on another page may land slightly off after scaling.
  • Page numbers mean physical positions in the file: page 1 is the first page, whatever number is printed on it.
  • This tool runs in your browser. Very large files depend on your device's memory.

Resize PDF pages: common questions

Is Resize PDF pages free?
Yes. Resize PDF pages is free and works without an account, for files up to 25 MB and 150 pages. A free account raises that to 50 MB and 400 pages.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. Resize PDF pages runs in your web browser, so the file is read on your own device and never sent to ConvertFile.
How do I change a PDF from US Letter to A4?
Add the PDF, choose A4 and Scale to fit, then download. Letter pages are slightly wider and shorter than A4, so the content shrinks about 3% to fit the width and gains a thin band of white space above and below.
Does resizing make the text blurry?
No. The page content is scaled as vector graphics, not turned into an image, so text stays sharp and selectable at any size.
What's the difference between resizing and cropping?
Resizing changes the paper size and scales the content onto it. Cropping keeps the paper size but hides the edges of the page.
Does Resize PDF pages work on Mac, Windows, Android and iPhone?
Yes. It runs in any modern web browser, with nothing to install. Very large files work best on a desktop or laptop, because in-browser tools use your device's memory.
