They can be trimmed: Or filed, but they are caused by a bony prominence which a foot doctor can fix permenantly, one should realize that is through a surgical procedure.

Variety of ways: Corns can be formed from several different reasons. I recommend seeing a podiatrist who can help with different treatment options including prescription ointments to custom orthotics. Don't let them go to long without care, they can lead to ulcers. Conservative care include avoiding tight shoes, pressure, friction. Topical creams can help soften but stay away from any medicated pads.
