All you have to do is type in your required dimensions and your resolution there. ie it says "width" and "height" and resolution. For eg, for a 5x7, just type in "5 in" in the width, "7 in" in the height, and say "300" in the resolution and use the drop down menu to choose your preferred measurement ie pixels per inch, or per cm. When you go to crop the image, it will show a box as you drag the mouse but you won't be able to deviate from the dimensions that you entered above. The second option is to use the image/image size tool and when you type in your new dimensions select "constrain proportions" but that is only for resizing and not actually for cropping. Hope this answers your questions! tan. -----Original Message----- From: keller.schaefer [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Saturday, 3 April 2004 12:55 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: OT: Photoshop question I have a question regarding Photoshop - I hope it is not too silly... If I want to crop an image but wish to retain a (or arrive at a) certain aspect ratio - how can I do this? If I select a frame to crop to, I will most certainly change the aspect ratio a little bit (even if I try not to) which will then lead to prints of slightly different size. Don't shout, if the answer is all to obvious, just laugh at me... Thanks, Sven
