File types, size limits, and presets for Exam Photo Resizer
Knowing what Exam Photo Resizer accepts makes your exam application smoother. The tool works on image files you upload — which are processed locally and never sent to any server.
Supported file types
| Format | MIME type | Typical use | Status |
|---|---|---|---|
| JPEG | `image/jpeg` | Most common for exam photos — small, widely accepted | Supported |
| PNG | `image/png` | Crisp signatures and images needing transparency | Supported |
| WebP | `image/webp` | Modern format, good compression | Supported |
Size limit
The maximum upload size is 20 MB per file. In practice, exam portals want files far smaller than this (often under 100 KB), so the auto-fit engine is what most people rely on to shrink a photo down to the portal's KB target.
Exam presets
There are 19 exam presets covering common government and academic exam photo and signature specifications. When a matching preset is selected, the tool applies the required pixel dimensions automatically. If your portal isn't in the list, enter the exact dimensions and KB target from your exam's official notification.
Getting the best output
- Start with the highest quality source image you have — compressing degrades quality, so begin with a sharp original
- Match the output format to what the portal accepts (JPEG is the safest default for photos)
- Always keep the original image as a backup before you resize
Verdict
Exam Photo Resizer handles JPEG, PNG, and WebP up to 20 MB, with 19 presets and auto-fit compression — and no file ever leaves your device.
