How to crop and rotate an image

STEP 1

Add a photo

Drop it on the box above or pick it from your files.

STEP 2

Drag the box

Move it, pull the corners, or choose a shape like square or passport and the box snaps to it.

STEP 3

Save it

You get a new file at the size shown under the picture. Your original is untouched.

Getting a passport or visa photo right

Most photo requirements are a shape plus a size: a 35 by 45 millimetre print, or an exact pixel count for an online form. Crop to the shape first using the passport preset, then use the resize tool to hit the exact pixels the form is asking for.

Turning the picture is a separate thing from cropping it, and the order matters. Straighten or flip first so you can see what you are doing, then draw the crop box on the picture the right way up — which is how this tool works.

Cropping never reduces quality, because nothing is being stretched or re-drawn. You are simply keeping fewer pixels than you started with.

Questions

Is my file uploaded anywhere?

No. The work happens inside this tab, on your own machine. Open your browser's network tab while you use the tool, there is no request carrying your file.

Is there a file size limit?

None set by us. Very large files are limited only by your device's memory, and we warn you before that becomes a problem.

Do I need an account?

No, and there is no daily limit either. There is nothing to sign up for.

Can I crop to an exact pixel size?

Crop to the shape you want here, then use the resize tool to set the exact width and height.

Does cropping lose quality?

No. You are keeping part of the original pixels, not rebuilding them.
