How Do You Crop a PNG Without Losing Transparency?
To crop a PNG and keep its transparent background, add it to the cropper above, set the crop area and download it as PNG; transparent pixels stay transparent because the file is saved as a PNG.
- Add the PNG.
- Set the crop area.
- Download with the format set to Same as original or PNG.
Why Did My Cropped PNG Get a White Background?
That happens when the cropped image is saved as JPG, which cannot hold transparency, so empty areas are filled with a color. In the cropper, leave the format on Same as original or choose PNG. If a PNG that looks transparent shows a white box anyway, see why your transparent PNG has a white background.
Need a Transparent Background First?
If your picture has a background you want to remove, use the background remover to get a transparent PNG, then crop it here to trim the empty space around the subject.
