Photo and Signature Size Limits for Online Applications

Last checked 7 November 2026. Rules change with every notice, so always check your own advertisement or notice. Marukit isn't affiliated with these organisations and can't guarantee a file will be accepted. Each row links to the document it comes from.

Size limits by portal

How to use this table

1. Find your portal and check that the rule matches your own notice, because limits can change from one recruitment to the next.
2. Press Open. The tool opens with that size, range and pixel size filled in.
3. Choose your file, press Compress and check the exact size shown before you download.

Tips for signatures

• Sign with a black pen on plain white paper and photograph it in good light, without shadows.
• Crop close around the signature before uploading, so it isn't tiny inside a big white area.
• Tick Signature: clean white background, black and white in the tool. It makes the paper pure white, which also makes small sizes like 10-20 KB easier to reach.
• A clean signature at a tiny size like 140 x 60 px is often under 10 KB, even at the best quality. That's why the IBPS Open link doesn't fix the pixel size. If your notice requires 140 x 60 px exactly, tick Exact size in pixels and enter it; the tool tells you if the file then comes out under 10 KB.

Tips for photos

• Use a recent photo with your face clearly visible on a light or white background. Keep it in colour.
• If the form gives pixels, use the exact size option: the photo is cropped from the centre to that shape, so keep your face in the middle.
• The tool sets size and pixels only. It can't check whether a portal will accept your background, glasses or lighting.

Turning centimetres into pixels

Pixels = centimetres / 2.54 x DPI. For example, 3.5 cm at 200 DPI is about 276 px. Use the DPI your notice gives; if it gives pixels directly, use those.
