Indian Exam Photo Resizer
Choose an exam reference preset, select a document tab and add an image. The tool crops automatically from the centre when a target shape is configured, then exports a JPG and reports its measured file size. Check your current official instructions before using a preset.
Target: 200 x 230 px · 20–50 KB · JPG

How to resize an exam photo or signature
- Select your exam in the dropdown. Compare the reference table and its dated source notes with your current notification; a retained preset is not proof of a current official requirement.
- Choose the required document tab, such as Photo or Signature. Its Target line shows the preset dimensions, format and file-size range. A portal requiring live capture may not accept an uploaded photo.
- Choose a readable JPG, PNG or WebP from your device. Convert other source formats first. A damaged image or excessive decoded dimensions can fail; try a smaller supported original.
- Check the subject position. This tool uses an automatic centre crop, not a draggable crop editor. Use Crop Image first to reposition a face or keep all signature strokes inside the frame.
- Press the document's Prepare button to apply its dimensions and seek its KB ceiling. For a physical-size reference, enter an explicit DPI to calculate pixels; no print-resolution metadata is written. Leave optional name/date fields blank unless your notice requires them; fill both if used.
- Review the actual preview, dimensions, measured file size and Below/Within/Above range message. Above range means the ceiling was not reached at the preset dimensions: try a cleaner source rather than submit it as compliant. Below range may need a higher-detail source; no padding is added. If dimensions differ from your notice, use Resize Image with the correct values.
- Choose Download JPG, open the saved file and recheck its dimensions, bytes and readability before submitting it yourself. The reference checks do not assess face placement, recency or portal acceptance. Save before refreshing or leaving the page.
IBPS photo and signature reference
Bank recruitment forms usually ask for more than a face photo: the IBPS presets cover a photograph, a signature, a left thumb impression and a handwritten declaration, each with its own pixel grid and KB window. The declaration is the file people most often get wrong, because its wording, language and ink are checked as well as its size.
These are reference IBPS presets, not a verified specification for every current CRP. Open the notice for your exact post before using the photo, signature, thumb or declaration tab. Declaration wording and required documents can differ between recruitments.
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Photo
| 200 x 230 px | 20–50 KB | JPG |
Signature
| 140 x 60 px | 10–20 KB | JPG |
Left thumb impression
| 240 x 240 px | 20–50 KB | JPG |
Handwritten declaration
| 800 x 400 px | 50–100 KB | JPG |
- A declaration can have the right size but wrong wording or handwriting; this tool cannot validate either.
- A centred crop may cut thumb edges or signature strokes. Crop excess paper from the source first.
- A plain signature may fall below the minimum even at high quality. The tool reports that; it does not add artificial padding bytes or guarantee acceptance.
IBPS questions
Should I scan the thumb impression and declaration together?
No. Each IBPS preset expects its own image, so photograph the thumb impression and the declaration on separate sheets and prepare them in their own tabs. A combined scan would be cropped from the centre and lose part of one document.
Can the tool check my declaration wording?
No. It measures pixels and bytes only. Copy the declaration text from your own recruitment notice and read the downloaded JPG to confirm every word is legible before you submit it.
SSC photo and signature reference
Recent SSC notices capture the candidate photo live inside the application module, so the file you prepare here is the signature. The preset describes it in centimetres rather than pixels, which is why the tab asks for a DPI before it can calculate the output grid. SSC's own instructions single out blurred and miniature signatures as rejection reasons.
The linked CHSL 2025 notice uses live photo capture and a JPEG signature of 10–20 KB, approximately 6×2 cm. This named notice supports the reference settings, not a blanket rule for every SSC examination or a later cycle.
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Photo
| Live capture in CHSL 2025; check your current examination notice | — | Not uploaded |
Signature
| About 6.0 cm x 2.0 cm | 10–20 KB | JPG |
- Blurred and miniature signatures are specifically discussed in SSC's instructions; resizing cannot repair an unreadable original.
- Blank or invalid DPI cannot apply the physical-size preset. Enter a safe positive value; the calculation does not embed print-DPI metadata.
- Do not upload an older-cycle photo file when your actual application requires live capture.
SSC questions
Why is the SSC photo tab unavailable?
The linked notice uses live photo capture in the portal. A resizer cannot replace that camera step, so the tab is disabled rather than offering a file the portal would not accept.
Which DPI should I enter for the signature?
Use the value stated in your notice if it gives one. The DPI only converts centimetres to pixels for this output; it does not embed print metadata, and a blank or invalid value stops the preset from running.
NEET UG photo and signature reference
NEET UG applications combine uploads with documents candidates bring later, so two kinds of preset sit here: the bulletin's upload windows for the passport photograph, signature and thumb impressions, and a postcard-size preparation copy. The bulletin describes the postcard in inches as a print, which is why that tab needs a DPI and why its KB setting is a preparation reference rather than an upload rule.
The NEET UG 2026 bulletin confirms a JPG/JPEG passport photo of 10–200 KB, and asks candidates to keep 4×6-inch postcard prints. That does not establish a 10–200 KB postcard-upload rule or a mandatory name/date strip. The postcard KB preset is a preparation reference, not an official upload requirement; stamping is optional here.
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Passport photo
| Check the official notification | 10–200 KB | JPG |
Postcard photo
| 4 x 6 inches | 10–200 KB | JPG |
Signature
| Check the official notification | 4–30 KB | JPG |
Thumb impressions
| Check the official notification | 10–200 KB | JPG |
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Passport photo
| Passport size | 10–200 KB | JPG |
Postcard photo (4×6 in)
| 4 x 6 in | 10–200 KB | JPG |
- For NEET UG 2026, the uploaded passport photograph must be recent under the bulletin's stated date rule; check the current session rather than reusing a previous year's advice.
- A white canvas only fills transparent pixels. It cannot replace a coloured wall or fix shadows in a photograph.
- A postcard print requirement is not proof of an online postcard-upload KB range. Confirm the destination before submitting the generated copy.
NEET UG questions
Do I have to add my name and date to the NEET photo?
Only if your own instructions require it. The name/date strip is optional here and is applied only when both fields are filled; leave them blank otherwise and check that any strip does not cover your face.
Can this tool fix a coloured background?
No. The white canvas only fills transparent pixels. A photo taken against a coloured wall needs to be retaken, or have its background removed before you prepare it.
Is the postcard copy the same as an upload?
Not necessarily. The bulletin asks candidates to keep postcard prints; confirm where a postcard file is actually requested before submitting the generated copy, and arrange actual-size printing separately.
UPSC photo and signature reference
The UPSC preset produces a centred square photograph. It is a retained reference rather than a confirmed current OTR rule, so compare it with the photograph instructions on the portal for your examination before relying on it. Because there is no face detector, a portrait with the head near the top edge can be clipped by the square.
The 350×350 square is a retained reference preset, not a verified universal current UPSC/OTR rule. The CSE 2025 notice supports a historical 20–300 KB photo/signature range, but does not substantiate the exact square as the only accepted size. Read the notice and current portal guidance for your examination.
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Photo
| 350 x 350 px | 20–300 KB | JPG |
- An off-centre face can be clipped by the square even if the output has the preset dimensions.
- Being under the maximum does not prove the minimum is met; check the below/within/above status.
- The tool cannot certify background, recency, name/date requirements or identity-photo acceptance.
UPSC questions
My head is cut off in the UPSC square. What should I do?
Open Crop Image first and place your head and shoulders in the middle of the frame, then bring that crop back here. The preset always takes the centre of the source.
Does a result under the maximum mean the file is accepted?
No. Check the Below/Within/Above status for the minimum as well, and confirm the background, recency and other rules in the current UPSC instructions yourself.
RRB NTPC photo and signature reference
The RRB NTPC preset is a landscape photo output, written width by height, and it has not been verified against the current detailed CEN. Railway recruitments differ by post and cycle, and some use live capture, so open the notice for your recruitment number before preparing an upload.
The retained 320×240 px, 20–50 KB photo preset has not been verified against the current detailed NTPC CEN. It is a landscape output (width×height), not a universal rule for NTPC, ALP or Group D. Check the exact CEN and whether your application uses live photo capture before preparing an upload.
| Document | Dimensions | File size | Format |
|---|---|---|---|
Photo
| 320 x 240 px | 20–50 KB | JPG |
- 320×240 here means 320 pixels wide and 240 high. Do not silently treat it as a portrait specification.
- A legible photo can still fail because the wrong CEN, format, minimum size or capture method was used.
- This photo-only configuration does not generate a railway signature or certify the other application documents.
RRB NTPC questions
Does the NTPC preset apply to other railway posts?
Do not assume so. Each recruitment publishes its own CEN, so check the photo instructions for your post rather than reusing the NTPC reference.
Why does my NTPC photo come out very small?
A plain or heavily compressed source has little detail to keep. Start from the original camera photo rather than a forwarded or screenshot copy, then prepare it again.
Specs can change with every notification, and these reference settings are not an approval certificate.
How to prepare Indian exam photos and signatures
Read the document type, format, pixel or physical size, and KB range in your current notification. Some portals capture a photo live rather than accept a file. A byte-size check cannot establish face coverage, recency, handwriting or the correct capture method.
Photograph. Use a recent, front-facing photo against a plain light background, with your face clearly lit and no shadows. Take it in daylight near a window rather than with a harsh flash. Leave some space above the head, because the crop frame needs room to fit the required shape.
Signature. Sign on plain white paper with the ink required by your own notice, large enough that the strokes survive the reduction. Photograph it flat, in good light, and crop tight around the signature so empty paper does not shrink the actual writing.
Resize and check. Pick your exam above, upload each file in its tab and inspect the automatically centred crop after preparing it. Use Crop Image first if you need to reposition the subject. The result panel shows the exact dimensions and file size of the file you download, so you can compare them with the table before you upload. Save files as JPG and do not rename a PNG or HEIC file to .jpg; convert iPhone photos with HEIC to JPG first.
How to download and check the JPG
Press the selected document's Prepare button, inspect the preview, dimensions and Below/Within/Above range message, then choose Download JPG. The filename adds the exam preset and document identifiers to the original name. A below- or above-range file is still downloadable, but does not meet that reference range. If processing fails, try a readable, smaller source. If saving fails, check download permissions and your Downloads folder before clicking again.
When the current official notice differs from the selected reference preset, enter the notice's exact pixels with Resize Image.
Frequently asked questions
Which exams does the resizer support?
It offers IBPS, SSC, NEET UG, UPSC, RRB reference presets. Official requirements vary by examination and cycle; some retained presets are unverified for the current notice. Compare them with the linked official instructions.
Are my photo and signature uploaded anywhere?
The photo or signature is processed in local browser memory, not uploaded to a processing server or examination portal. Analytics records exam, document and result events, not image contents or name/date text. Refresh loses unsaved results; saved downloads remain on your device.
What if the portal still rejects the file?
Check the latest official notification, because specifications can change between recruitment cycles. Then confirm the format is JPG and the file size shown in the result is inside the stated range.
