PURPOSE How to crop and straighten images in Affinity Photo. GENERAL STEPS Open the appropriate Affinity application, confirm the correct document is open, and use the relevant tools, panels, export settings, or layout options for the task. VERIFY RESULTS Review layers, resolution, color mode, linked assets, page size, bleed, export format, and file size before sharing or sending the final file. TROUBLESHOOTING If the file behaves unexpectedly, save a copy, restart the application, check linked assets, and confirm the file is not read-only or missing required resources. BEST PRACTICE Keep an editable source file and export separate final files. Do not treat an exported image or PDF as the only working copy.
