Method

How this tool works

The selected source rectangle is redrawn to a new browser canvas at its original pixel resolution and encoded in the chosen output format.

Worked example

A centred 1:1 crop of a 2400 × 1600 image uses a 1600 × 1600 square beginning 400 pixels from the left edge.

Assumptions & limitations

Animated images are flattened to one frame. JPEG removes transparency, metadata is not retained and browser memory limits apply to very large images.

Privacy

Your image is decoded, cropped and downloaded only within this browser tab. No file contents or calculation inputs are sent to our analytics system.
