In defining the selection size, regardless of the method you choose, you can maintain the current height and width proportions of the image.

For example, you set the width to 4 inches and the height to 6 inches. You change the width to 5 inches. If Keep Proportions is not selected, the height stays at 6 inches. Thus, the proportion of the page height and width changes. If Keep Proportions is selected when you change the width, the height automatically changes to 7.53 inches. The lock icon indicates that the page size will be maintained in the same proportion whenever you change either the width or the height.

1.Click the Main tab.

2.If you want to preserve the current proportions of the image, click the Keep Proportions button.
