Output Customization: Advanced Controls

While our presets handle most needs, you have full control over how your final images are generated.

1. Output Format

  • Platform Default (Recommended): Automatically selects the best format for each platform (e.g., JPEG for Amazon, WebP for Shopify speed, PNG for Etsy quality).
  • Manual Override: Force all outputs to JPEG, PNG, or WebP if you have specific requirements.

2. Aspect Ratio Handling

  • Keep Aspect Ratio (Smart Padding): This is the default and recommended setting. If your source image (e.g., landscape) doesn't match the target (e.g., square), we add padding (white bars) to fit the space. This ensures your product is never cropped or distorted.
  • Stretch: Stretches the image to fill the canvas. Use this only if you know your aspect ratios already match.

3. Add White Background

  • Feature: Automatically fills any transparent areas or padding with pure white (#FFFFFF).
  • Use Case: Essential for marketplaces like Amazon and Google Shopping that reject images with transparency or colored borders. If disabled, padding will be transparent (for PNG/WebP) or black/white depending on the format.
