Crop image
Cut a region of a JPEG, PNG, or WebP.
About this tool
Cropping cuts a rectangle out of a JPEG, PNG, or WebP so a headshot, a product, or a slide fill fits a frame. Unlike resize, leftover pixels are discarded rather than squeezed.
Locked 1:1 and 16:9 boxes help social and video covers. The crop is a still: animated WebP contributes its first frame. If you only need fewer megabytes and want the whole picture, Compress image is the better tool.
You drag a box on a local preview. The selected pixels are drawn to a canvas and encoded. Nothing is uploaded. 50 MB and 32 megapixels apply to the source. Output still has to fit the browser canvas.
How to crop an image
- Choose a JPEG, PNG, or WebP. It stays on your device.
- Drag the crop box. Lock 1:1 or 16:9 if you want a fixed ratio.
- Crop and check the preview.
- Download the cut-out.
50 MB / 32 MP. HEIC and AVIF are not crop sources here — convert them to JPEG or PNG first. One image at a time.
FAQ
- Is the original uploaded while I drag?
- No. The preview and the crop both run in the tab. Closing it drops the in-memory copy.
- Can I crop to a circle?
- Not in this tool. You get a rectangle. A later editor can mask a circle from the PNG.
- Does crop change JPEG quality a lot?
- The selected region is re-encoded. Photographs pick up a little JPEG loss; PNG crops stay lossless.
- Why lock 16:9?
- Thumbnails and slides often require that ratio. Locking stops an accidental freeform box.
- Can I crop a PDF page?
- Not here. Rasterize with PDF to JPG or PDF to PNG, then crop the image.
