I'm looking for a software tool that makes it easy to convert a digital image from 4:3 format to 3:2 format.

Since it is necessary to hand in the pictures in 3:2 to be able to get prints in 15x10cm, and my camera does not have the opportunity to change to 3:2 format, it would be neat to have a program that does this fairly easy.

In "normal" programs I have to select "crop", 3:2 format and stretch a box to the wanted area before I can save the image. This of course is very time consuming when I have a lot of pictures.

Also it would be nice if I still have the opportunity to select the part of the picture I want to keep and what should be removed, without having to choose 3:2 format and stretch the selected area to the maximum possible every time.

Thus, if you know a program that does this automatically og semi-automatically, please let me know... it would be a lot of help to me.

The problem with automating this is still that someone has to decide which part is the area you want to save. Some programs make this easier than others, but all that I have played with still require the user to select both the size and location for cropping. I would say that I only crop to full width about 50% of the time so this feature would rarely save me anything.

There is a program Called Image Process from Micro-Art (http://www.micro-art.com) that can convert the aspect ratio.
