Adobe Acrobat allows you to edit PDF documents in various ways, including page cropping.

The Crop tool in Adobe Acrobat provides a way for modifying the page layout, by adjusting the page margins. Adjusting the page margins can be done on all pages in the PDF document, or on a page-by-page basis. You adjust the page margins by defining specific page margin values or by visually setting the page boundaries while viewing the document.

A crop operation cannot be undone. Furthermore, cropping does not reduce the file size.
