Initially, Jpegcrop was designed to provide a powerful user interface for the new Jpegtran (crop feature). However, Jpegcrop evolved and became "stand alone" software with various features and options.
Now, Jpegcrop is a nearly complete user interface replacement for the old Jpegtran. You can use Jpegcrop to view your images, rotate them, zoom in and out, crop, transpose and much more.
From my point of view, Jpegcrop can now realize with the more popular IrfanView.
Just like IrfanView, Jpegcrop is completely free and this is a huge advantage. There are so many similar products that require a payed license or a small monthly "donation" in order to use them. Jpegcrop is completely free and it can be downloaded and used without any problems.
Really important: Jpegcrop can also be used as a portable application. It does not require installation. Simply download and run the executable file from your computer. If we must make a comparison between Jpegcrop and IrfanView (Irfan requires installation), I would say that Jpegcrop is far more "handy" from this point of view.
Jpegcrop comes with various features and tools that make it one of the most powerful applications of its type. Let's have a short look over some of the most important ones for a better understanding of what this software can provide:
- Scale lossless and resize option
- Zoom in and out with one single click
- Selectable zoom level
- Rotation and transformation options
- Crop and drop feature (similar with cut and paste)
- Simple and intuitive interface
- User friendly
- Lightweight
- Jpegcrop does not require installation
- Jpegcrop supports every major Windows platform including Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7.
- Powerful Help system
- Grayscale reduction option: you can transform any picture into a black and white image in just a few seconds
- Print option
- Preferences section: the user can set various values from there.

Why is Jpegcrop famous?
Jpegcrop is famous because it is one of the best image viewer and editors available at this moment. Jpegcrop can successfully compete with the more popular IrfanView.
