Hi
I have scanned my 35mm slides using a automated scanner. The resulting jpg images have a partially black border and the actual image area is not rectangular (there are slightly rounded corners). I want to crop my scanned 35 mm slides so that I minimize the black border and fill the rounded corners either with solid black or to be transparent. I can create a shape using the custom shape tool that is a good fit to the non-rectangular image area I want to keep. How can I use this custom shape from the shape tool to crop the area outside the custom shape and have the corners either solid black or transparent? That is – I am trying to get a resulting image that is mainly actual image area execpt the corners which are filled with solid black or tranparency.
Thanks
Eric
