Trim Crop To eliminate portions of an image, use the crop tool to draw a box around the part of the image you wish to keep. 1. Select the Crop tool . Or press the ‘C’ key on your keyboard. 2. Drag the crop tool around the portion of the image you wish to keep. If you don’t get it just right, that’s OK, you can adjust it in the next step. 3. Adjust the crop tool by dragging the square handles located around the edges of the marquee. The cursor will change to a double-headed arrow indicating that you may drag the handle. If you move the cursor outside the boundary, the cursor changes to a curved double-headed arrow indicating that you can rotate the crop boundary. 4. Double-click inside the boundary to crop the image. 5. Press Esc to get rid of the cropping boundary if you change your mind about cropping. Image Size When you want to change the size of your image, select Image Size from the Image menu. Note that you should usually only make your image smaller, not larger. Photoshop can make your image larger, but it doesn’t know what to put into that extra space. So Photoshop s t r e t c h e s the image until it fits into the size you specified. During the stretching, your image loses detail and often looks blurry. There are occasions when a slight enlargement has little effect on quality. But in most cases, if you want a larger image, you should scan it at a larger size.
