Notes

• Upload multiple image files in the multipart request. The images are assigned to template cells in upload order.
• If more images are uploaded than the template supports, extra images are ignored.
• Supports HEIC, RAW, PSD, and SVG input formats (automatically decoded).
• The canvas base size is 2400px on the longest side, scaled by the chosen aspect ratio.
• When aspectRatio is "free", the canvas defaults to 4:3 (2400x1800).
• Per-cell panX/panY values shift the crop window within the cell. A value of 100 moves fully to one edge, -100 to the other.
• The "transparent" background color is only preserved with png, webp, or avif output formats.
