I am using a standard Android camera/surface area. I am not using the full screen, and have implemented the preview surface area with a height of 200dp. However, when I save the photo, it is saved as if the preview/surface area is the full screen.

Is there a way for me to save to a jpeg exactly what is displayed on the preview/surface area?

Some context for the question, I am using the camera to capture the text of a street sign, so I only need a very small image.

    See android demo code ( demos/ ) :

    I’m not aware of interface allowing ti capture only subimage
