Using the Editing Tool

You can resize,  crop and rotate an image with the Edit Image tool. See instructions for each below.

Resize

1. ENTER a width and/or height for the image, in pixels.
2. CHECK "Preserve Ratio" to keep the original proportions of the image.
3. CLICK "Resize" to apply your changes.

Crop

1. DRAG the dotted outlines around the image to define the cropped area. You can choose an aspect ratio for the crop; use "Custom" for the crop ratio to be unrestricted. "Swap width & height" swaps the numbers of the aspect ratios.
2. CLICK "Apply Crop" to crop the image.

Rotate

1. CLICK "Rotate" to rotate your image 90繙 to the right.

Zoom

1. USE the + and - magnifying glasses, or TYPE in a percentage, to zoom in and out on the image. "Original" returns the picture to its actual size. "Zoom to Fit" scales the image to fit the editing window. This tool doesn't change the image, just zooms in and out to make it easier for you to edit.

Save Your Changes

1. CLICK "Save" to save your changes to your original image file.
2. The recommended best practice is to CLICK "Save As, " keeping the same image file name but adding the width of the new size, such as footsie.jpg to footsiex700.jpg
