Need your PAN card photo and signature at the right KB? Type the limit into ResizePing's Target size, check the projected size and save, all on your phone.

The PAN card photo size in KB and the signature size are set on the application form. An NSDL page lists the photo at up to 20 KB and the signature at up to 10 KB. To get there, open the picture in ResizePing, set Mode to Target size and type the KB limit.

Photo or signature rejected? ResizePing resizes pictures to a size in KB on your phone. Get it on Google Play or the App Store.

PAN card limits

Limits change per notice, check yours.

Tip: type your form's KB into Target size in ResizePing and the file is sized for you.

FileAs listed in recent notices
PhotoUp to 20 KB, 3.5 × 2.5 cm
SignatureUp to 10 KB, 2 × 4.5 cm

Steps

  1. Take the photo and signature limits from your form or notice.
  2. Open ResizePing and pick the picture.
  3. Set Mode to Target size.
  4. In Target (KB), type the limit, slightly below the maximum.
  5. Read the Projected size, tap Run and check the saved size.
  6. Repeat for the other file with its own limit. Crop the white margins off a signature photo first.

If the size can't be reached, ResizePing says "Can't get this under N KB. Try a larger size or lower resolution." Make the picture smaller with Dimensions or Percent, run it, then set Target size again.
