For photo and signature resize on an SSC, NEET, UPSC or PAN form, open each picture in ResizePing, set Mode to Target size, type the KB limit from your form and run it. Do the photo and the signature separately, because each has its own limit. The app shows a projected size first and says so when a size can't be reached.

Steps
- Read the photo and signature limits in your form or its notification. Sizes differ by exam and year, so take the numbers from there. Note the format (JPG, PNG or WEBP) and any pixel size. Not sure how big your file is? See how to check a photo's size in KB.
- Open ResizePing and pick your photo.
- Set Mode to Target size.
- In Target (KB), type the limit. If the form gives a range, type a number inside it, slightly below the upper limit.
- Pick the format the form asks for. Leave Strip metadata on.
- Read the Projected size, then tap Run and check the saved size before you upload.
- Repeat for the signature with its own limit. Crop the white margins off a signature photo first.
If the form also asks for pixels
Some forms give a size in pixels as well as KB. Set Mode to Dimensions and enter the width and height, run it, then open the result and use Target size for the KB limit.
If the size can't be reached
When ResizePing can't reach the target it 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 open the smaller result and set Target size again.

What to know
- ResizePing works on photos. It has no signature or ID mode, and it does not change backgrounds.
- Never uploaded to our servers.
- The projected size is an estimate. The saved file can land a little above the number you type, so if the form has a hard limit, type a slightly lower target and check the saved size.
