Saving Cropped Album Scans as Separate Files

Once a scanned album page is split into individual photos, you still need sensible files. AI Auto Cropper exports each crop as its own image or bundles several into a ZIP.

If you want to try it while reading, start with export cropped scans as separate JPGs or a ZIP. The notes below cover what the tool does, how to use it, and where its limits are.

Export options

Choose JPG, JPEG or PNG. One crop downloads directly, several come as a ZIP. Optional fixed aspect-ratio padding helps for frames or printing, and the date taken can be written into the JPG.

Key features

• Exports JPG, JPEG or PNG, one file directly or several in a ZIP
• Optional fixed aspect-ratio padding and date taken written to the JPG
• Runs in the browser; images are not uploaded; no account, page limit or watermark
• Finds and crops every print on a multi-photo scan or album page
• Straightens tilted prints with rotated boxes that follow each edge
• Manual editing: move, resize, rotate, add or delete boxes, with undo

How to use it

1. Scan several prints at once on a plain, even background, leaving small gaps between them (300–600 DPI works well).
2. Drop the scan or album page into the tool.
3. Check the detected boxes; drag, resize or rotate any that are off, or draw a box for a missed print.
4. Rotate sideways or upside-down photos with the rotate buttons on each crop.
5. Tick the photos you want and click Export to download a file or a ZIP.

Who it is for

• Families digitizing old albums page by page
• Anyone splitting flatbed scans that hold several prints
• Archivists batch-cropping large stacks of scans
• People who want to keep private photos off third-party servers

FAQ

Are my scans uploaded?

No. Detection and cropping run in your browser.

Does it fix tilted photos?

Yes. Tilts under 2° are treated as level by default, which you can change in advanced options.

What if a photo is missed?

Draw a new box, or adjust an existing one, before exporting.

Does it detect upside-down photos?

No. Use the rotate left and right buttons on each crop.

Honest limits

Results depend on the scan. Prints that touch, overlap or sit on a busy background are harder to separate, and very curled prints may need a manual box. Always check the boxes before exporting, especially on album pages with decorations.
