	<title>Cropping</title>

    <p>
    The cropping feature in <app>Simple Scan</app> allows you to use only a part of a scanned image. You can
    enable crop either before or after scanning a page, and you can always change the dimensions of the crop
    frame. When crop is enabled, a mask will appear over the current page with the area not being used shown
    in gray. You can enable crop and choose the desired dimensions via one of the following methods:
