You can get Photoshop Album 2.0 starter edition with Adobe Reader 7, if you already have adobe reader, open it, click help, check for updates and it will offer photoshop album as an update.

This has the easiest crop tool I have used.

Click fix after you use it to open an image

Hi Keith,

I managed to download OK> However I can't figure out how to "trace around a figure" and the crop out the unwanted material. There's probably a way, some how.

Cheers

You probably won't get this feature on a free programme, there are programmes which will let you select an area of the image and cut out that or the rest of the image
