Frequently Asked Questions
Will a 50KB photo still look acceptable?
For a passport-style photo or a signature at the small dimensions forms ask for, yes. A full-size camera photo squeezed to 50KB will look rough — resize it first.
My photo is still over 50KB. What should I do?
Reduce its dimensions with Resize Image — most forms only need a few hundred pixels across — then compress the smaller image here.
What format is the result?
JPG, which is what most forms require. You can switch the output format if the form accepts something else.
The form wants between 20KB and 50KB. Can I do that?
Yes — a 50 KB target gives a file at or under 50KB, as close to it as the quality steps allow (a JPG already under the limit that would only grow is kept as it is). For a lower ceiling, change the number in the Target size (KB) field.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?
No. The compression runs inside your browser, so your photo and signature stay on your device.
