Photo resizer in KB
Application forms often want both an exact photo size and a file-size limit. Set both here in one step and download a photo that passes the check first time.
How to use it
- Choose your photo.
- Pick a common form size, or type the width, height and maximum KB your form asks for.
- Check the result and download the JPG.
Read your form’s photo instructions
Most online applications list three things for the photograph: the dimensions (in pixels or cm), the file size (for example 20–50 KB), and the format (almost always JPG). Enter all three here. The presets cover common combinations, but your form’s own instructions always come first.
Crop to fit, never stretch
Form sizes like 200 × 230 px are a different shape from a phone photo. Instead of squashing your face, the photo is trimmed evenly to the right shape. For precise framing — head centred, shoulders visible — crop it first with the crop tool, then come back here.
Sizes in cm
If the form gives a size like 3.5 × 4.5 cm, choose cm as the unit. The DPI decides how many pixels that is: at 200 DPI, 3.5 × 4.5 cm is 276 × 354 px; at 300 DPI it is 413 × 531 px. If the form does not say, 200–300 DPI is normal.
Frequently asked questions
Is my image uploaded?
No. Resizing happens inside your browser on your own device, so your photos are never sent to a server.
My form says the photo must be between 20 and 50 KB.
Set the limit to 50 KB. The tool keeps the highest quality that fits, so the result lands just under 50 KB — comfortably inside the range.
What background should the photo have?
Most forms want a plain white or light background. Take the photo against a plain wall in good daylight; the tool does not change the background.
Which format should I choose?
JPG. It is what almost every application portal accepts, and the only format the file-size presets are tuned for.
