Understanding Government Exam Photo & Signature Specifications
Why exam portals reject uploads and how our tool ensures 100% first-time acceptance.
Automated Aspect Ratio & Dimension Checkers
Modern recruitment servers (SSC, NTA, UPSC) use automated scripts that check pixel width and height before accepting an upload. Pre-formatting to exact millimeter and pixel specs avoids instant rejection.
Strict Minimum & Maximum File Size Ceilings
Exams enforce strict lower and upper limits (e.g., SSC photo: 20KB to 50KB; signature: 10KB to 20KB). Our engine targets the exact middle of the allowed range to prevent server validation errors.
Background Contrast & Biometric Facial Ratio
Portals require plain white or light backgrounds with the candidate's face covering 70%–80% of the frame. Our crop guides ensure your face and shoulders meet official biometric rules.
