I was wondering how to crop an image correctly so when you make prints they come out normal?

This example is one for an 11x14. You should check with your lab to see if they provide a custom profile so that you can apply that. If you are doing local printing by yourself it is a good idea to check the paper manufacturer's website to see if they provide a profile for your printer. My life is like one big RAW file....way too much post processing needed.

The image should always be the same shape as the paper it will be printed on. E.g., if you order an 8x10 print, that paper has a 4:5 ratio, so your image should be cropped to that ratio. Elie / אלי
