Abstract
Embodiments described herein include an image-content dependent system for cutting a print in response to content of an image disposed on the print. The system includes a print cutter, a computer storage device, and a processing device. The print cutter cuts a print according to an image-content dependent cut pattern. The computer storage device stores image component metadata created from image content of an image disposed on the print to be cut. The processing device uses the image component metadata to generate the image-content dependent cut pattern to be used by the print cutter to cut the print.
