Easy Crop has one real challenge which can make working with it very difficult: The size of the resulting file is mostly bigger than the input file and that despite showing only the crop area which - you would expect - is smaller than the full area.

Well, the issues seems to be with the compression mode and has been like this for the past 2 versions. The newest version doesn't fix this issue.

Other than ... if you don't care for file size - it's a magnificient program.

File size issues but easy to use - Jay Teo

What format are you outputting in? If your input is JPEG and output is in PNG or TIFF, then it's very possible for the output to be bigger in file size than the input. If you're outputting in JPEG, select a quality setting of 75 or lower and you should get a good compromise between file size and quality. If you set the quality to 100, then yes, the file size may grow.

Thanks.
