To upload a photo to a public-exam or civil-service form without a rejection, match the pixel dimensions and the maximum weight in the official rules. Resizing is usually enough; if it is still heavy, compress it.
What the form usually asks for
- Pixel dimensions (width × height) or a specific aspect ratio.
- A maximum file weight (for example, a few hundred KB).
- An image format, almost always JPG.
Adjust the photo step by step
- Check the official rulesNote the size (in pixels) and the maximum weight your call for applications requires.
- Resize the photoOpen the resize image tool and set the maximum width and height stated in the rules.
- Compress if neededIf the weight is still over the limit, run it through the image compressor and check again.
When the image already has the right size but still weighs too much, the image compressor lightens it without changing its dimensions. No account is required; the download expires with the guest retention window.
