Trim excess whitespace from exported presentation slides to focus on the core content.

Tips & Best Practices
Measure First
For precise cropping, open your PDF in a reader that shows coordinates or rulers to determine the exact values you need to trim.
Crop Less Than You Think
Start with smaller crop values. It's easy to crop more, but you can't undo a crop that removes important content without re-uploading the original file.
