 Depending on the printer, the trimmed image area might not be printed 
as you specified.
  The smaller you make the trimming frame, the grainier the picture will 
look on the print.

at the image on a TV screen, the trimming frame might not be displayed 
accurately.

not work or may be overwritten. Also, depending on the image type, the 
print order may not be possible.
