advanced cropping
« on: 11 November, 2017, 04:25:21 pm »
I have  a rectangular image, which i'd like to turn into an oval to eventually print on an oval label for my homebrew bottles.  I can get a suitably sized oval superimposed, in MS powerpoint, but is there a way to crop just inside the oval and then use that as the image to repeat on the page?

I know I could use rectangular labels, but oval would look much cooler  8)

Sorry, I thought this would be about Norman Hunter.

I only know who Norman Hunter is because my games master used to ask me if he was my Dad. 

Oh, and I wouldn't have said what Norman Hunter did could in any way be described as 'advanced'!

The quantity of his cropping was far in advance of anyone else, with possible exceptions of Chopper Harris and Tommy Smith!

I think you have to be an LUFC fan of a certain age or over to get that one Peter.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.
