Answer 1

I think it's not possible to crop a pdf directly. You can to convert the pdf to an image and then you can to crop it.

Answer 2

PDF cropping is not trivial, since a PDF crop boundary is simply the edge of the viewport so you can easily reset it inside the /Mediabox (even simply rename them) but it should never crop the contents. Here we see the Text now runs off the page boundary,

Thus when asking for a crop tool many users actually need a redaction tool, that cuts away the unwanted external edges, or is highly variable to only encompass the page contents, which for images is not likely to be practical using a programmed approach, thus best done using a GUI like BRISS
