Frequently asked questions

Does cropping reduce quality?

Cropping removes pixels but does not blur the ones that remain. The image is re-encoded once, so use a high quality setting for JPEG.

Can I drag to select the area?

This version uses numeric fields for precision. The preview updates live so you can fine-tune the values.
