Resize PDF Pages
Change PDF page dimensions to standard sizes like A4, Letter, Legal, or custom dimensions. Optionally scale content to fit the new page size.
How to Resize PDF Pages
- Select your PDF file
- Choose a standard page size (A4, Letter, Legal, etc.) or select Custom
- For custom sizes, enter width and height in points (72 points = 1 inch)
- Check "Scale content" if you want to resize the content proportionally
- Click "Resize PDF"
- Download your resized PDF
Common Page Sizes
- A4 (595 × 842 pts): Standard international paper size, used worldwide except North America
- Letter (612 × 792 pts): Standard US paper size (8.5" × 11")
- Legal (612 × 1008 pts): US legal documents (8.5" × 14")
- A3 (842 × 1191 pts): Double the size of A4, used for posters and large documents
- A5 (420 × 595 pts): Half the size of A4, used for booklets and notes
When to Resize PDFs
- Printing Requirements: Adjust to match your printer's paper size
- International Documents: Convert between US Letter and A4 for international use
- Presentations: Resize to match display dimensions
- Booklets: Create smaller formats like A5 for booklets
- Posters: Enlarge to A3 or larger for printing
Scaling Tips
- Scale Content On: Maintains aspect ratio and prevents distortion
- Scale Content Off: Changes page size but keeps content original size (may crop or add margins)
- Points to Inches: Divide points by 72 (e.g., 595 pts ≈ 8.27 inches)
- Points to Millimeters: Multiply points by 0.353 (e.g., 595 pts ≈ 210 mm)
