In-Depth Information
Photoshop straightens the image, so that the line you drew is parallel with the top
of the image area. You drew a line across the top of the photo, but any line that
defines either the vertical or horizontal axis of the image will work.
Now, you'll trim the white border and scale the image.
6.
Drag the corners of the crop grid in to the corners of the photo itself to
crop out the white border. If you need to adjust the position of the photo,
click and drag it within the crop grid.
Tip
You can choose Image > Trim to discard a border area around the
edge of the image, based on transparency or edge color.
7.
Press Enter or Return to accept the crop.
The image is now cropped, and the cropped image fills the image window,
straightened, sized, and positioned according to your specifications.
Tip
To quickly straighten a photo and crop out the scanned back-
ground, choose File > Automate > Crop And Straighten Photos.
8.
To see the image dimensions, choose Document Dimensions from the
pop-up menu at the bottom of the application window.
