How live photo capture works

  • Sit in good, even light from the front with a plain light background.
  • Take off caps and dark glasses and look straight at the camera.
  • If the captured photo doesn't meet the instructions, capture it again before final submission.

Common signature rejection reasons

  • The signature is in CAPITAL letters instead of running hand.
  • It is blurred, very small or cropped.
  • The file is under 10 KB or over 20 KB.

Why your file stays private

SSC Signature Resizer 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

Do I still upload a photo for SSC?

No. Under the current notices the photograph is captured live during the application, and you upload only the signature.

Is the SSC signature 4 × 2 cm or 6 × 2 cm?

The recent CHSL, JE and Selection Post notices give about 6.0 × 2.0 cm, and some sources list 4.0 × 2.0 cm for CGL. Follow your notice. Both presets are available above.

Can I sign in capital letters?

No. SSC rejects signatures in capital letters, so use your normal running signature.

Blue or black ink?

Black ink on white paper gives the cleanest scan.

Are my photos uploaded?

No. Resizing and compression happen inside your browser, so your photo and signature stay on your device.
