Photo and Signature Guides

Photo and signature guides

Forms usually give two limits for a photo or signature: the dimensions (pixels or cm) and the file size (KB). Check both on the form before you start.

Resize a photo to 20-50 KB and 200×230 pixels

1. Open Resize Image to KB & Pixels.
2. Upload the photo.
3. Pick the preset Photo 200×230 px · 20-50 KB, or type your own width, height, Min size and Max size.
4. Leave Crop to fill selected so the face isn't stretched.
5. Click Resize & compress. A green tick means the file is within both limits.

If the form gives the size in cm (for example 3.5×4.5 cm at 200 DPI), switch the unit to cm and type the DPI. ANURUP converts it to pixels and writes the DPI into the JPG.

Make a passport size photo (35×45 mm or 2×2 inch)

1. Open Passport Size Photo Maker and upload a front-facing photo.
2. Pick the size. 35×45 mm is used in India, the UK and for Schengen visas, 2×2 inch in the US.
3. Drag the photo and use Zoom until the head sits inside the orange oval and the eyes are near the dashed line.
4. Choose a background fill. If the photo has a busy background, run it through Remove Image Background first.
5. Click Generate passport photo. Turn on the 4×6 inch sheet to print several copies on photo paper at 100% scale.

If the form also has a KB limit, click Continue with → Resize to size & KB on the result.

Prepare a signature for an exam form

1. Sign with a black or blue pen on plain white paper. Take a photo in good light, straight on.
2. Open Signature Cleaner and upload it. The result updates as you change settings.
3. Choose Black ink and a White (JPG) background for most forms. Move the threshold slider if thin strokes vanish.
4. Click Continue with → Resize to size & KB, pick the Signature 140×60 px · 10-20 KB preset (or type the form's numbers) and resize.

Change a photo's background to white

1. Open Remove Image Background and upload the photo.
2. Click Remove background. The first run downloads the AI model, so it takes longer.
3. Pick White (or light blue, red, any colour, or transparent). Switching colours afterwards is instant.

Compress several photos at once

1. Open Compress Image to KB and add all the images.
2. Choose Target size (KB), type the limit and pick JPG.
3. Click Compress, then Download all (.zip).
