Editing Cropping (image) (section)

===Crop marks===
[[File:Cropped card.jpg|thumb|Visiting card before and after cropping.]]
To assist in precise cropping of a printed image, crop marks may be printed at the four corners of the image, just outside the central area to be retained: &thinsp;{{large|⌏}}&thinsp; at the top left corner, &thinsp;{{large|⌎}}&thinsp; at the top right corner, &thinsp;{{large|⌍}}&thinsp; at the bottom left corner, and &thinsp;{{large|⌌}}&thinsp; at the bottom right corner. The paper or paperboard on which the image is printed can then be cut on each side so that the crop marks are removed.

In Unicode, the crop marks are represented by:
* {{unichar|230F|Top Left Crop}}
* {{unichar|230E|Top Right Crop}}
* {{unichar|230D|Bottom Left Crop}}
* {{unichar|230C|Bottom Right Crop}}

Crop marks are useful for cropping images printed with [[bleed (printing)|bleed]], and more generally, when the position of an image on the final sheet is not precisely known in advance.
