Crop photos and screenshots without uploading anything

Most crops are about removing, not editing: the stranger at the edge of the photo, the toolbar in the screenshot, the empty sky above the subject. Drawing a box around what matters and cutting the rest takes seconds — and PDFNest does it entirely in your browser, so even private photos never get uploaded.

Which aspect ratio should I use?

1:1 (square) for profile pictures and most avatars. 4:3 is the classic photo shape; 16:9 fits video thumbnails, presentation slides and banners; 9:16 is the vertical story/reel format. And free is for everything else — trim exactly what you want with no constraint.

Cropping keeps every pixel inside your selection at full resolution — nothing is scaled, so there's no quality loss. If the cropped result also needs to hit exact dimensions, run it through Resize Image next; if the file needs to be smaller, finish with Compress Image.
