It is not recommended to place lettering, framing and important details of the image close to the edge as it is likely to be cropped.



Framing.
If the aspect ratio of the photograph differs from the aspect ratio of the print size you have chosen, then the image should be framed in the chosen orientation or you should choose a different size that fits your photo.
Auto crop framing options

Colour correction.
