The ability to instantly crop, resize and output images, in any format, is crucial to delivering best practice marketing communications.
And a DAM solution that allows you to easily export images to the document requirements and social media formats most commonly used by your business, promotes efficiency and huge cost savings.
The “Custom image size” cropper featured on Brand Toolbox allows users to crop images to pre-configured sizes (set by the Administrator) or enter their own custom dimensions. They can then export their resized images in JPEG and PNG formats.
Common image sizes
Listed below are the common Business-centric and Social Media sizes that are shipped with the Brand Toolbox software. Note that this is only a small selection of available sizes – there are countless more (e.g. DL, A3, Business cards, Posters, Billboards etc). You can have as many options as your organisation and taxonomy and metadata structures require:
