Make every pixel count.

Using Image Cropper & Editor

Prepare one image from composition through final export while keeping the original available in the same workspace.

How to use it

1. Choose a PNG, JPEG or WebP. Drag a crop or choose a ratio. Numeric coordinates and arrow keys provide a keyboard alternative; Shift moves ten pixels.
2. Rotate or flip to adjust composition. Rotation resets the crop to match the new orientation; Undo edit restores earlier crop and transform settings.
3. Choose fit to keep the image inside optional bounds, or exact canvas to add background padding. Pixel content is never enlarged. Square and wide presets create padded canvases.
4. Choose an output format. JPEG/WebP can optionally try a decimal KB target. Create the download, inspect the final preview and actual bytes, then save.

Worked example

Input and settings

A 640 × 480 image with a centered square crop.

Expected result

The crop selects 480 × 480 pixels. Fitting within 320 × 320 creates 320 × 320 pixels. Padding to 1080 × 1080 keeps the 480 × 480 image centered on the larger background.

Limits and common mistakes

• Crop removes pixels, fit reduces dimensions, and pad adds a background. None restores lost detail or enlarges the image pixels.
• The selection preview shows the oriented original with a crop overlay. Padding and final encoding appear in the export preview after Create download.
• Coordinates refer to the orientation-corrected, rotated and flipped image. Locked ratios use whole-pixel rounding; editing numeric bounds switches to free selection. Undo edit covers crop and transforms, not all export settings.
• Input limit: 25 MiB. Output-area limit: 16,777,216 pixels. Large sources can still exceed decoding memory; preview and export require browser resources.
• JPEG flattens transparency. Padding uses the chosen solid background. PNG has no quality or target-byte control; JPEG/WebP targets may not be reached.
• Exports always use the original file rather than repeatedly recompressing intermediate results. Still-image output does not guarantee preservation of animation, metadata or color profiles. Clear or leaving the page removes the working image.
