How to choose the right guide

Use the guide library by task, not by feature name. Start with the final destination, then choose the workflow that prepares the image for that destination with the least unnecessary processing.

SituationBest starting pointConfirm before export
You know where the image will be publishedChoose a guide for product photos, social images, share cards or documents.Final dimensions, format and visible crop.
You need the same result repeatedlyUse a scenario-oriented guide and save the setting chain.One representative output before the batch.
You need smaller filesStart with compression or format conversion, then inspect quality.Text, edges, gradients and final file size.
You need privacyUse metadata cleanup or local browser workflows.That the output file no longer contains unwanted metadata.

People and agents use the same practical contracts

A person can follow the guide in the UI. An agent can use the matching recipe, runtime API or result manifest. The important part is the same: verify the output facts after export.

Guides are not a substitute for platform review

The pages explain repeatable preparation steps. They do not claim guaranteed approval by a marketplace or social platform when the final visual content breaks that platform's current policy.

Use guides as a workflow map

Start from the destination

A guide is strongest when it starts with the place where the image will be used: marketplace, social post, document, catalog, ad or reusable batch. That keeps the editor choices tied to a visible result instead of a random feature list.

Keep the editor and QA connected

After following a guide, verify the exported file facts: dimensions, format, file size, metadata state, warnings and any recipe QA. The guide explains the intent; the result manifest confirms what the browser actually produced.

Do not reuse one export everywhere

One image can produce many outputs, but the review should still be per placement. A LinkedIn preview, an Instagram story, a product feed image and a PDF document have different crop and readability risks.
