Retouching and restoring images 271
Resizing the canvas
The image canvas is the work area of the image and defines the image
dimensions — for example, 200 300 pixels. If you need more space
to add elements to an image, you can increase the canvas size, or you
can resize the canvas to make it smaller.
If you want to resize by adjusting the image size, see “Resizing images”
on page 221.
What is the difference between reducing the canvas size and
cropping an image?
Reducing the canvas size is not always the same as cropping an image.
For images with layers, reducing the canvas size does not delete the
pixels outside the new canvas area — it just shows less of the layer.
Background layer information is always deleted, even when there are
other layers in the image.
To change the canvas size
Edit workspace
1 Choose Image Canvas Size.
The Canvas Size dialog box appears.
2In the New Dimensions group box, mark the Lock aspect ratio
check box.
3 Set or type values in the Width and Height controls.
4In the Placement group box, click a button to set the placement of
the image in the new canvas, or set values in the Top, Bottom,
Left, and Right controls.
The values show the amount of canvas added or subtracted from
each edge.
5 Click OK.
