What it does
Select a portrait and get an ID photo: the background becomes white, blue or red, and it’s cropped around the face.
Small 1-inch, 1-inch, large 1-inch, small 2-inch or 2-inch at 300 dpi, so it prints at the right size; or keep the original size and change only the background.
Also save a 6-inch print sheet: as many copies as fit (12 at 1-inch, 4 at 2-inch), with cutting lines, ready for a photo lab.
Removing the background and finding the face happen on your Mac; the photo isn’t uploaded. The copy is saved next to the original.
