How to use the Add Margins to PDF
- Choose a PDF.
- Set the margin for each side, in millimetres.
- Turn on mirroring for double-sided binding, then download.
What does this tool do?
Extra space stops text disappearing into a binding or under hole punches, gives room for handwritten notes, and helps when a printer can't print to the edge.
The page grows by the margin you add and the content isn't scaled, so quality is unchanged. Links and form fields keep working. Your PDF is processed on your own device and never uploaded.
Why use it?
- Per-side control.
- Mirrored binding margins.
- No quality loss.
