Frequently asked questions
What’s the difference between Pad and Crop?
Pad keeps the entire original image and adds space to reach the target ratio. Crop trims the edges instead, with nothing added.
Will Crop mode cut off part of my subject?
It might, if your subject isn’t centered — Crop trims evenly from the center outward, so an off-center subject could lose part of its edge.
What format does the download come in?
A JPG for a white fill, or a PNG for a transparent fill in Pad mode; the source format is preserved in Crop mode.
