Photo Cropping

[cpless]

I am scanning old photos into photosuite. I would like to do it in batches rather then 1 at a time. How can I crop 1 scan of 6 photos into 6 individual photos. Thanks, Carol

I have done this before and I am not saying this is the BEST way of doing it, but it worked for me. In Photosuite, select, open photo under "open/create", and open up the 1 scanned picture. Select crop under "Fix". Then move the border it gives to one of your pictures and arrange it exactly the way you want the picture to look. Then you have to click the "x" of the crop box and the 1 picture you just cropped will show. Then do a "save as". When you have saved it, use the back arrow to find your 1 picture of the 6 pictures and do the process again until all of your pictures are saved as individual pictures. Hope that helps! It may not be the best way, but it worked for me!!

In addition, check your scanner documentation, too. It may allow batch scanning.

I haven't tried this in Photosuite, since I usually use a different photo editor, but I scan multiple photos, set my crop-box as desired, do the "save as" option, then just click Ctrl-X (undo) a few times until I get back to the original set of images, then re-crop, "save as" and repeat. (Possibly quicker than re-opening the original scan.)
