How to use Crop an Image
- 1. Drop in an image. Add the photo or graphic you want to crop, in any common format. The tool loads it in full so you can see exactly where the region you keep will sit.
- 2. Set Left, Top, Width and Height. Enter the pixel coordinates of the region to keep: Left and Top mark the corner where the crop starts, Width and Height set how far it extends from that point.
- 3. Download the cropped result. Click generate and download the resulting file. It contains only the pixels inside the region you specified, everything outside it is discarded.
When to use Crop an Image
Crop an Image cuts a rectangular region out of a picture using exact pixel coordinates and discards everything else. It suits situations where you know the precise boundaries you want, whether from a design spec, a screenshot region, or measurements taken elsewhere.
- Trimming a screenshot to one component. You captured a full browser window but only need the sidebar or a single dialog box for a bug report, so you crop to just the pixel coordinates that component occupies.
- Preparing a product photo for a listing. A photo has too much background around the product, and the marketplace requires a specific aspect ratio, so you crop to the exact region that fits the required dimensions.
- Extracting a chart from a scanned page. A scanned report contains one figure you need for a presentation, and cropping to its known pixel bounds pulls it out cleanly without the surrounding text.
- Batch-processing consistent frame regions. A set of images from the same camera or scanner all share a border you want removed, so you crop each one using the same Left, Top, Width and Height values.
Examples

Input
photo.png + region (250, 120, 400×300)
Output
photo.png containing only the selected 400×300 region
About the Crop an Image tool
Crop an Image does its work locally, right in the browser. Cut a rectangular region out of an image and discard the rest. There is no upload step, no queue and no account, and your data never travels over the network.
It belongs to the Image Tools collection on EditSafely, a set of 200 small, focused Image utilities that share the same instant, private workspace.
You can shape the output with 4 settings, including Left (px), Top (px), Width (px) and Height (px), and the result refreshes the moment you change one. The finished file is put together in browser memory and saved with the Download button, so it never touches a server on the way to your disk. A worked example further down the page shows exactly what the tool produces for a real input.
Running locally also makes the tool fast and dependable: results appear as you type or drop a file, there is no server outage that can take it down mid-task, and confidential data can be processed without a second thought.
Frequently asked questions
Is Crop an Image free to use?
Yes, it is completely free. All 2,658 tools on EditSafely work without an account, a subscription or usage limits.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
Everything happens locally. Your browser downloads the tool's code once, then does all the processing itself; nothing you enter is transmitted, stored or logged. You can even go offline after the page loads and it will still work.
Which files does Crop an Image accept?
It accepts images in any common format (PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF and more). There is no file size cap imposed by a server; very large files are limited only by your device's memory.
Do I need to sign up or install anything?
No. The tool works in any modern browser on desktop, tablet or phone. There is no account to create, no extension to add and no software to install.
How do I save the output?
Click the Download button once the result is ready. The file is built in your browser's memory and handed straight to your downloads folder, without passing through a server.
