Portals that require images under 200KB
200KB sits at the intersection of quality and practicality — it's generous enough to maintain excellent photo quality while being small enough to load fast and meet strict portal upload limits. It's the most widely used limit across Indian government digital infrastructure.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a minimum size requirement on UPSC OTR?
Yes — UPSC OTR requires the photo to be between 20KB and 200KB. Our tool targets just under 200KB, which safely satisfies both the maximum and leaves the file well above the 20KB minimum. If you need a different range, use the custom target mode.
Can I use this for both photo and signature uploads?
Yes for photos. For signatures, the target is typically much smaller (10–50KB) — use our dedicated signature compressor which is pre-configured for the right spec.
Will the photo quality be acceptable at 200KB?
200KB for a typical passport-size photo (350×350px or 630×810px) means very light compression — the quality will be excellent, essentially indistinguishable from the original at any normal viewing size. This is one of the more generous file size limits on government portals.
