Straighten, Square and Crop Photo's of Old Photos - amyearsley - 04-17-2018
I've taken a load of photo's of old photo prints. They are not square on the photo's I have taken and some of the photos were not completely flat.
What I want to be able to do is select the four corners of the photo, square up the corners and crop to that size so end up with a nice square off straight photo.
I've tried searching but have been unable to figure this out. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Andrew

Use the perspective tool:
- Set to "Corrective" mode
- Drag the handles in the four corners of the image to the corners of what should be square.
- Confirm by hitting the "Transform" button.
