Hey everyone. I was able to get a a copy of Aperture 2. One thing I was wondering was the best way to crop an image. By default the master ratio that I want is 5:4 or 4:5 so I can produce a 8X10 image. Will I need to crop these once again when I get them developed or will they print to my exact cropping. I appreciate the help.

You can just use the crop tool to 5x4 (or 8x10), but whether it crops on printing is determined by your print service.


"Raw" is not an acronym, abbreviation, nor a proper noun; thus, it should not be in capital letters.

If you crop at 4x5 (8x10), when you export it will be at that ratio. When you send it for printing, it will be at that ratio and should print to what you see on your screen.
