About this tool

Many online forms and websites refuse a photo bigger than a set size. 50 KB is used for passport-size photos for exam, job and government forms - the most common limit. This tool saves your photo as a JPG at the highest quality that still fits under 50 KB - it tries one quality after another until the file fits - and makes the picture a few pixels smaller only when that is the only way. The result is checked before you download it, so it is never over the limit.

My form also asks for exact pixels - what do I do?
