Notes

• Requires at least 2 images. Upload multiple image files in the multipart request.
• Supports HEIC, RAW, PSD, and SVG input formats (automatically decoded).
• Resize modes:
  • fit - Scale images to match the smallest dimension along the joining axis.
  • original - Keep original sizes (may produce uneven edges).
  • stretch - Force images to match the smallest dimension without preserving aspect ratio.
  • crop - Cover-crop images to match the smallest dimension.
• In grid mode, cells are sized to the median dimensions of all images.
• The cornerRadius is applied to the entire final output, not individual images.
• Canvas size is limited by the MAX_CANVAS_PIXELS server configuration to prevent memory exhaustion.
