Question

I made small program to divide large pictures and take part of them.
When i import image that made by “Microsoft Paint” this image is “96 dpi” so my program doing well.

But I’ve pictures that made by Photoshop its resolution is 71.6 dpi when i crop these pictures the new cropped picture take 96 dpi resolution so the size is deference between them.

I want to crop the picture with keeping its resolution as it.

.

thank you very much

Bitmap.clone lets you create a cropped copy of an image, which you can then save. It shouldn’t change resolution or anything (the image will look bigger if you open it in a program that zooms in more when images are smaller). It cannot be used to expand the canvas (you’ll get out of memory errors). So, just grab an Image from file, cast to Bitmap, (system.drawing namespace) and clone it to be smaller, then save it.

Example:

using System.Drawing;
//...
Bitmap x = (Bitmap) Image.FromFile(@"c:\tmp\food.png");
Image x2 = x.Clone(new Rectangle(25, 25, 50, 50), x.PixelFormat);
x2.Save(@"c:\tmp\food2.png");
