Notes

  • The crop region must fit within the image boundaries. If the region extends beyond the image, the request will fail.
  • When using percent unit, values represent percentages of the image dimensions (e.g. left: 10 means 10% from the left edge).
  • Output format matches the input format.
  • EXIF orientation is auto-applied before cropping, so coordinates correspond to the visually correct orientation.
