Frequently asked questions
Is the Crop Image tool free?
Yes — completely free with no account required. No watermarks are added to your cropped files.
What image formats are supported?
Crop Image supports JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, BMP, TIFF, HEIC, and ICO formats for both input and output.
How does preset ratio crop work?
Selecting a ratio (e.g., 16:9) takes the largest possible centered crop at that ratio from your image. No pixels are added — only the edges outside the ratio are cropped away.
How do I use custom crop coordinates?
Enter X offset, Y offset, width, and height in pixels. The origin (0, 0) is the top-left corner of your image. The tool validates that the crop region fits within the image bounds.
Are my images stored after cropping?
Cropped files are held on the server only long enough for you to download them, then automatically deleted.

Cropping removes everything outside the region you select, keeping just the subject or frame you need. AT USE Crop Image runs the operation server-side using ImageMagick, which means the crop is pixel-exact and unaffected by screen resolution, browser zoom, or device pixel ratio. Drop in a JPG, PNG, WEBP, AVIF, BMP, TIFF, or HEIC file up to 20 MB, choose your method, and download a clean result. Nothing is stored after download.
Preset ratio mode
Click a preset button — 1:1 for a square, 16:9 for widescreen, 4:3 for traditional photo or presentation proportions — and the tool calculates the largest centred crop at that ratio automatically. No coordinates to enter; the crop anchors to the centre of the image. This handles most routine social media, e-commerce, and presentation crops in a single click. A 1:1 crop from a landscape photo gives you the widest square that includes the centre of the frame; 16:9 from a portrait photo gives you the full width at widescreen height.
Custom coordinates mode
For exact control, switch to Custom coordinates and enter four values: X offset (pixels from the left edge), Y offset (pixels from the top edge), width, and height. The crop rectangle starts at the X and Y position and extends right and downward. This is the right choice when you need to isolate a specific region — a single product in a product grid, a chart area within a screenshot, or a caption strip across the bottom of an image. To find the correct pixel values, open the image in a browser tab and use the browser's DevTools cursor coordinates, or check your OS image viewer's status bar while hovering over the target corner.
Output format and transparency
Output format is independent of the input. Crop a HEIC photo and export as JPG, or crop a PNG with a transparent background and keep the transparency in the output. Transparent pixels within the crop region are preserved for PNG and WEBP output. Quality settings for JPEG and WEBP follow the 75–85 range that keeps visible detail while holding file size down. The download result shows both the original dimensions and the new cropped dimensions so you can confirm the region landed correctly.
Common use cases
- Square product photos for e-commerce — Amazon, Etsy, and Shopify display product images in a 1:1 grid. A 1:1 preset crop before upload ensures the subject is centred and no letterboxing appears in the thumbnail.
- 16:9 thumbnail from a wide photo — A landscape photo intended for a YouTube thumbnail or social header often includes extra sky or foreground that weakens the focal point. A 16:9 crop tightens the frame to the subject.
- Extract a chart region from a screenshot — When an export or screenshot contains a chart alongside surrounding UI chrome, custom coordinates cut out just the data area for embedding in a report or presentation slide.
- Remove scanner borders from documents — Document scanners add a white border around the scanned content. Custom coordinates targeting the page content strip the border and standardise dimensions across a batch of scanned pages.
- Tight headshot for a speaker or author bio — Conference and publication pages specify head-and-shoulders crops. Using custom coordinates to define the exact frame avoids the subject landing off-centre that a generic 1:1 preset produces when the face is not perfectly centred.
Frequently asked questions
How do I find the correct pixel coordinates?
Open your image in a browser tab and use browser DevTools to read the pixel position under the cursor — in Chrome: open DevTools, go to the Elements panel, and hover over the image to see coordinates in the styles bar. Most operating-system image viewers also show cursor coordinates in a status bar. Enter the X and Y values of the corner pixel as the offset, then the width and height of the region you want.
Does cropping reduce file size?
Yes. Fewer pixels means a smaller file. Cropping a 4000 × 3000 image to 1200 × 1200 reduces the file size roughly in proportion to the area reduction — often 80–90% smaller depending on the format and content.
Can I enter a crop region that extends beyond the original image?
No. The crop region must fit within the original pixel dimensions. If the X offset plus width exceeds the image width, or Y offset plus height exceeds the image height, the tool flags a validation error before processing.
Does cropping preserve PNG transparency?
Yes. If the crop region includes transparent pixels, those pixels appear as transparent in the output. Choose PNG or WEBP as the output format to retain the alpha channel — JPEG does not support transparency.
What is the difference between cropping and resizing?
Cropping removes content from the edges, changing what is visible and reducing pixel dimensions to just the selected region. Resizing scales all dimensions proportionally or to a specific size without removing content. To both trim content and change the overall dimensions, crop first then resize.
