cf/x photo crop PRO overview

cf/x photo crop PRO is all about cropping. The most important step in photo processing. It must be simple. And automated.

Highlights:

Automated workflow
Supports strong naming schemes for automated file naming
preserves your original
unless you really, really want otherwise
convenient crop presets for most paper sizes and devices
refined aspect ratio control
rotate & align tool
fully integrated Margin/Passe partout manager
provides optional fixed output sizes for iPad, iPod, iPhone
has three color schemes for work on bright or dark images
finely tuned user interface
many different advanced composition controls, including Rules-Of-Thirds, Fibonacci-Spiral (Golden Rule), Diagonals
real-time read-out of dimensions and aspect ratio
direct export to many file formats, iPhoto, Aperture, email, Preview App, social web, desktop picture
full EXIF support
quickly apply your current settings to multiple images

Please note that most likely you already have a tool that can crop images (for example iPhoto). Whatever you are using, this app is merely much, much better. At cropping images. Nothing else.

Please also note that we also offer a non-automated version of this app that has all the cropping features minus the automation.

Note that this app really doesn't do anything except cropping. Yes, this is in fact stated in the description, but I was still hoping that it would be possible to select the output size for the resulting cropped image. I.e. if you want to generate a bunch of nicely cropped 800x600 pictures for mom's digital photo frame, this app does only half of the job. So I guess I would have been better off with the competing app "Click 2 Crop". Another problem I noticed is that the app wasn't able to preserve the EXIF metadata of the picture I tested it with (which is surely a bug that they are going to fix as the preservation of metadata is on their feature list). I am not in the position to write a full review here because I lost interest in the product after these observations, but I still wanted to let you know.

Finally! Someone has written a clean program that does cropping well! The workflow in this is straightforward and easy to use: if you're processing scans, and they're in a consistent size and position, the last crop carries over to the next image; one click and you're on to the next image. I like that you can review every image, and you only adjust the frame if the current image requires it.
