Creating Transparency with the Cookie Cutter Tool Option
You can create a full image transparency for the image that you crop with
the Cookie Cutter tool option by setting the Feather slider to a high num-
ber, such as 240 to 250 pixels. Based on your setting, this applies the
feathering effect to a large area of the image.

in the toolbox of the Expert mode.
