To compress an image to 50KB: select the photo, keep "Any image, 50 KB or less", press Resize & compress and download. For a fixed size such as 200 × 230 px, choose an exam photo preset.
How to compress Image to 50KB
- Select your photo.
- Keep the 50 KB preset, or choose an exam photo preset.
- Press Resize & compress.
- Download the JPG.
Why many portals also set a minimum
Portals often want photos between 20 and 50 KB. The minimum is there to stop tiny, unreadable images. Exam presets respect both limits. For your own range, choose Custom and fill in the minimum and maximum KB.
Photo rules most portals share
- A recent colour photo with a plain white or light background.
- The face covers roughly 70–80% of the frame, both ears are visible, and there are no caps or dark glasses.
- Some notices, especially for state-level recruitment exams, want your name and the date printed below the photo.
cm, pixels and KB in one go
If the notice gives the size in cm (such as 3.5 × 4.5 cm), choose Custom, set the unit to centimetres and enter the DPI. GreenPDFs converts it to pixels and writes the DPI into the file. The Photo & Signature Resizer has all the presets.
Why your file stays private
Compress Image to 50KB runs entirely inside your browser. Your file is read from your device, processed in memory and saved back to your device. It is never uploaded to GreenPDFs or anyone else, so you can use it with Aadhaar, marksheets, bank statements and other personal documents. How in-browser processing works.
Frequently asked questions
Will the photo be blurry at 50KB?
No. 50 KB is plenty for a passport-size photo at the sizes portals ask for.
What background colour should I use?
Plain white or a light colour without shadows, unless your notice says otherwise.
Can I make a passport photo at home?
Yes. Use the Passport size preset in the Photo & Signature Resizer. It also makes a 4×6 print sheet.
Are my photos uploaded?
No. Resizing and compression happen inside your browser, so your photo and signature stay on your device.
