Hello,
I would like to crop photos to 10 x 15 format so I can have them printed by a photo lab.
I downloaded Xnview, but I can't figure out how to use it (really bad at it).
Could you help me?
Thank you

Configuration: Windows Vista / Firefox 3.5.11

    Hello Vonika,

    I thought you were using PhotoFiltre and a bit of GIMP, so there's no need for XNView to crop, and PhotoFiltre is much simpler than GIMP; moreover, it has batch processing..... :-))

      I'm more comfortable with Photofiltre (if we can say that.....)
      but for batch processing photos, I don't see it.

      Good evening Transat,

      You know, you don't have to praise me too much because I haven't really done much, but thank you for the best wishes for the baby. Being a grandfather twice within three months feels a bit overwhelming and makes us feel a bit old.... xDD

      Best regards.

      Luke.

      Oh my poor old man. What should I say? Five times grandfather. Of course not in the same year.

      Hello,
      I sympathize as a grandfather of two little one-year-old twins (no more back pain :-) ) and another little girl of 3 months

      Good evening Vonika,

      You will never get a 10x15 print without cropping because that's the issue between image formats and paper sizes in cm. The 4:3 and 16:9 image ratios do not match the dimensions of the paper, and cropping is necessary; the 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33) and the 16:9 ratio (1.77(1.78)) do not correspond to the 10x15cm paper dimensions (1.5)...
      Here’s some reading because I don't have the courage https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_4/3, https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Format_16/9, generally speaking, digital camera images are in the 4:3 (1/33) format which corresponds to 24x36 (135)...

      Luke.
