Think of it as "actual size".When you open an image in a program, the default view is to see the entire image, regardless of your monitor size or the resolution of the image. This default view might be 50% or 67% or whatever it ends up being. This is so you can see the entire thing on your screen.If you zoom to 1:1 or 100%, the frame of the image doesn't change, but your are now only viewing a portion. That is referred to as the 100% crop.It works the same with documents in MS Word or other document viewers. You can view the entire page (at a reduced size) or 100%, which zooms in to just a few lines.</blockquote>
