I'm stumped. I cropped a picture that contained two people and just wanted one person to appear in the photo. After cropping (DPP), I clicked OK and then did a save as. When I went to Facebook to post the pic, the entire photo was displayed, not the cropped photo. What gives, if I go to print the photo, only the cropped version prints, not the entire photo.

In DPP 'Save' and 'Save as' do not mean the same things as they do in other programs. 'Save' means, "Save a list of the desired edits in the metadata section of the file without changing the image data." 'Save as' means, "Make a copy of the original and then do a Save to it."
In order to get a file in which the edits have been actually used to change the image, you have to do 'Convert and Save'.

Ahhhh, thank you so much.
