Crop Image

Keep a rectangular area of a JPG, PNG or WebP image using a visual selection or exact pixel coordinates.

Open Crop Image

Step-by-step instructions

  1. Choose one JPG, PNG or WebP image and wait for the preview.
  2. Drag on the preview to mark the area to keep, or choose an aspect-ratio preset as a starting point.
  3. Adjust Left, Top, Width and Height for an exact crop. Check that the rectangle stays inside the image.
  4. Run Crop Image and download the cropped copy in the source format.
  5. Open the result and check that no needed content was cut off.

Coordinates and presets

Left and Top are pixel offsets from the top-left corner, starting at 0. Width and Height are the size of the rectangle to retain. Coordinates refer to the automatically oriented image.

Presets include square 1:1, landscape 4:3 and 16:9, and portrait 3:4 and 9:16. Choosing a preset creates a centered crop. Manually changing dimensions can override its proportions.

Reset to full image restores a selection covering the source. The visual preview requires JavaScript; exact coordinate fields determine the exported crop.

Supported files and result

The tool accepts one JPG/JPEG, PNG or WebP and returns the same format. Only the selected rectangular area is retained. PNG and WebP transparency is preserved.

Cropping changes the image boundary, not the size of objects inside the selected area. Use Resize Image after cropping if you need a particular final pixel width or height.

Limits and troubleshooting

The crop needs positive whole-number width and height. Left and Top cannot be negative, and the right and bottom edges must fit inside the source image.

The full source must pass dimension and memory checks even for a small crop. If the preview orientation differs from what you expected, inspect the automatically oriented image and reset the crop before entering coordinates again.

Processing and privacy

The selected files are uploaded to Helphonic for processing in private storage. No third-party file-processing service is used. Temporary source and output files are removed after the download response, and failed processing cleans up temporary files. Keep your originals and save the result to your device.

Access and current limits

Check the tool page for current access, remaining usage and per-operation limits. File count, per-file size, total size and page limits can depend on your access and can change. Device and processor safety limits still apply when usage is unlimited. A paid pass does not necessarily increase every processing limit.

One successful export counts as one operation, including its multiple files or pages. Changing options and local previews do not use an operation. Current access checks must complete before the tool can release the result.

Check the current limits

Allowances and per-operation limits can change. The Crop Image page shows the policy that applies to you. Per-operation safety limits still apply when usage is unlimited. See access passes if a tool or extra usage requires paid access.
