Free tool
Resize an image to under 50 KB.
To get a photo or signature under 50 KB, keep the pixels the form asks for and let the JPEG quality come down: this tool does exactly that, then checks the finished file. 50 KB is the limit on the IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 photo, the IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 left thumb impression, the SBI PO and Clerk 2026 photo, the SBI PO and Clerk 2026 left thumb impression, the CUET UG 2026 signature, and the UPPSC OTR photo. Nothing is uploaded.

- IBPS PO/MT and Clerk (2026), photo: 20–50 KB, 200×230 px, 200 DPI. Recent colour photo on a light, preferably white, background. Glasses are fine without reflections; no cap or dark glasses. A live photo is also taken during the application.
- IBPS PO/MT and Clerk (2026), left thumb impression: 20–50 KB, 240×240 px, 200 DPI. Black or blue ink on white paper, 3×3 cm.
- SBI PO and Clerk (2026), photo: 20–50 KB, 200×230 px, 200 DPI. Recent colour photo on a light, preferably white, background. Glasses are fine without reflections; no cap or dark glasses. A live photo is also taken during the application.
- SBI PO and Clerk (2026), left thumb impression: 20–50 KB, 240×240 px, 200 DPI. Black or blue ink on white paper, 3×3 cm.
- CUET UG 2026, signature: 10–50 KB.
- UPPSC One Time Registration, photo: up to 50 KB, 5×6 cm, 200 DPI. True colour.
50 KB is also the minimum for the IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 handwritten declaration, the SBI PO and Clerk 2026 handwritten declaration, and the NEET UG 2026 fingers and thumbs: the tool pads a smaller file up to it without changing the picture.
The limits are quoted from each body's own notification, read 23 September 2026; each form's page links to it. Open the form's page to have its pixels, DPI and KB band filled in together.
What fits in 50 KB
- IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 pairs this limit with 200×230 px for the photo; IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 pairs this limit with 240×240 px for the left thumb impression; SBI PO and Clerk 2026 pairs this limit with 200×230 px for the photo; SBI PO and Clerk 2026 pairs this limit with 240×240 px for the left thumb impression, so that many pixels fit in 50 KB at good quality.
- A JPEG's size depends on how many pixels it has and how much detail is in them. Fewer pixels, a plain background and even light all make a smaller file; a busy background and shadows are detail the file has to spend bytes on.
- With a width and height entered, the pixels are kept and only the quality drops, down to the point where the tool warns you. With them blank, the picture is shrunk until it fits at a quality that still looks good.
- Signatures and documents compress best after “trim to the ink and whiten the paper”: white paper is almost free in a JPEG.
Questions
Is 50 KB 50,000 bytes or 51,200 bytes?+
Portals don't say, so the tool meets a maximum as 50,000 bytes with a little room to spare, which passes either reading, and meets a minimum as 1,024-byte KB.
Does it make the picture smaller in pixels?+
Only if you leave the width and height blank: then it shrinks the picture until the file fits at a quality that still looks good. With a width and height entered, the pixels are kept exactly and only the JPEG quality comes down.
Why was my file made bigger?+
Some forms set a minimum as well as a maximum, such as the IBPS PO and Clerk 2026 handwritten declaration and the SBI PO and Clerk 2026 handwritten declaration. If the picture comes out under the minimum at full quality, the tool pads the file up to it without changing the picture, and says so.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere?+
No. The file is resized in your browser and stays on your device; nothing is sent to Sochen or anyone else.
