How to Convert US Legal to A4 PDF Without Cutting Off Margins
US Legal paper (8.5 × 14 in) is 58.6 mm taller than A4, so printing a Legal contract on A4 without scaling cuts off the bottom of every page, often the signature block. Scaling the document to 83.5% fits the full page onto a 210 × 297 mm sheet.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about processing files securely in your browser
How do I convert a Legal size PDF to A4?
Drop your Legal PDF into the tool above, keep A4 selected, choose Fit & Scale, and download. Each page is reduced to 83.5% so the full height fits on the A4 sheet.
Why does a Legal PDF get cut off when printed on A4?
Legal pages are 355.6 mm tall and A4 pages are 297 mm tall. Without scaling, the bottom 58.6 mm has nowhere to go, so the printer trims it.
Is it safe to convert confidential contracts here?
Yes. The file is processed in your browser memory and is never sent to a server, which you can confirm by watching the DevTools Network tab or disconnecting from the internet.
