Image Resizing

Change the pixel dimensions of converted images.

Note: The output dimensions of ICO files is determined by the ICO encoder settings. For best results when using the ICO output format, please disable image scaling.

Scale by


Long side in pixels

Specify desired long side in pixels after scaling.

Width in pixels and Height in pixels

Specify desired dimensions for converted images.


Upscale Method

Determines what happens to neighboring pixels when image is resized to higher dimensions and pixels are added. Note that the Upscale option has no effect if the source image and converted image have the same pixel dimensions. Super Resolution operation requires some processing time, larger images will require longer processing time.

Downscale Method

Determines what happens to neighboring pixels when image is resized to lower dimensions and pixels are removed. Note that the Downscale option has no effect if the source image and converted image have the same pixel dimensions.


Change resolution (DPI)

DPI (Dots per inch) Specify DPI resolution for conversion. The higher the DPI the better the quality but the bigger the file size.


Image Cropping

Crop the image(s) to the specified dimension.

Aspect Ratio


Orientation

Check the Portrait radio button to make the cropped region taller than it is wide. Check the Landscape radio button to make the cropped region wider than it is tall.

Units

Select from Pixels, Inches, Centimeters or Millimeters. Width and Height will automatically be converted to your unit of choice.

Width and Height

Enter the width and height that the image should be cropped to. If the Keep Aspect Ratio box is checked, entering a value for one dimension will automatically change the other dimension's value to preserve the aspect ratio.


Anchor Point - Click the 3x3 grid of buttons to select the origin where crop will be applied.


Flip

Flip the image Horizontally or Vertically.


Rotate

Rotate by multiples of 90 degrees in a clockwise direction.


Watermarking

Pixillion can place (separate or combined) text and image watermarks on your converted images. The watermark preview area can help you to visualize what your final images will look like with the watermarks.

Fit to Window

It provides a quick way to make you see everything of the selected source image with effects.

To add the effect, click the Effects button and choose Vignette or click Effects menu > Vignette. Check the 'Enable' checkbox to use the effect.

Usage

The Vignette effect is controlled by 3 settings:
