You can use ImageMagick (free program) to crop white space from a pdf. The command is something like:
convert -fuzz 15% -bordercolor white -trim input.pdf output.pdf

Or if you want to crop a lot of pdfs at once, copy all of them to another directory, open a command prompt in this new directory and run:
mogrify -fuzz 15% -bordercolor white -trim *.pdf
