OOo has a crop feature, but I've not been able to find out if it has a 'handle edit' feature like Word's. If you select a photo, right click and select 'graphics' you'll get a dialogue with several tabs. One of them is 'crop'. On that dialogue you can enter the crop distance from each edge of the original. There's a preview so you can see what you're going to get.

i've always use Microsoft Word where i insert pics before have have the pages printed out.I like Word as it has the "crop" tool which enables you to crop away any part of the pic you don't want without distorting the remaining part of the pic. i just started using Openoffice.I'd like to ask if it has the "crop" tool? I can't find it. I tried to crop part of the pic by clicking on the pic,move my mouse to the side and closed in ,but the pic becomes distorted. Also,does it has the "%"(percentage) button(like in Word)?.For eg,if i go to this button and select "50%"(instead of 100%),the size of the page(document) will become smaller,which will make it easier for me to work with without needing to keep using the mouse to pull the scrollbar down and up. Thank you.
