What does Exam Photo Resizer do?

Exam Photo Resizer resizes and compresses exam photos and signatures to match exact portal specifications, so your upload gets accepted the first time. It handles JPEG, PNG, and WebP images up to 20 MB, and everything runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded to a server, so your photo and identity stay private.

Common uses

  • Resizing a passport photo to the exact pixel size required by SSC, UPSC, and other exam portals
  • Compressing an image to fit a strict KB target (for example, below 50 KB or 100 KB)
  • Adjusting photo and signature files so they pass numeric and pixel checks during application
  • Producing clean, correctly-sized images for repeated government or bank exam applications

Key features

  • 19 exam presets covering common exam photo and signature specifications
  • Exact pixel dimensions — resize to the precise width × height each portal demands
  • Auto-fit KB target — automatically compresses until the file size falls within the portal's limit
  • Real-time file size — watch the KB count update live as you adjust settings
  • Private by design — images are processed locally and never uploaded

How it works

You upload a JPEG, PNG, or WebP image (up to 20 MB), pick an exam preset or enter your own pixel dimensions and KB limit, and the tool resizes and re-encodes it locally. For example, SSC commonly requires a 4.5 cm × 3.5 cm photo with the file under 50 KB, while UPSC mandates specific pixel dimensions and a maximum KB. The tool's auto-fit engine adjusts compression quality to land your file within the target while keeping the image clear. Because all processing happens in JavaScript in your browser, no photo data ever leaves your device.

Verdict

Exam Photo Resizer is the easiest way to meet strict exam photo and signature requirements — exact pixels, controlled KB, and zero privacy risk. Use it any time you need a portal-ready photo quickly — it is free, private, and always available at Exam Photo Resizer.
