About the Photo Resizer for Online Forms

Many recruitment and admission forms ask for a recent colour photo of exactly 200 × 230 pixels with a file size between 20 and 50 KB. Getting both right in a photo editor is fiddly; here it's one step.

Use a photo with a light background and your face centred. FileStripe crops it to the right shape, resizes it to the exact pixel size and adjusts the JPEG quality so the file lands inside the KB range.

How to resize a photo for an online application form

  1. Add your photo (a phone photo is fine).
  2. Pick the size preset your form needs.
  3. Download the JPG.

Frequently asked questions

My form asks for 3.5 cm × 4.5 cm. Which preset?

Choose 'Photo 3.5×4.5 cm', which is 276×354 px at 200 DPI, the usual reading of that requirement.

Will the portal accept it?

The output is a standard JPG at exactly the requested pixel size and within the KB range, which is what upload forms check automatically. Always confirm the current requirements in your exam or job notification, since they change.

Why is my file a bit bigger than I expected?

If an image compresses below the minimum size, a harmless blank comment is added to the JPG file so it meets the minimum. The picture itself is unchanged.

Is the Photo Resizer for Online Forms free?

Yes. The Photo Resizer for Online Forms is completely free with no sign-up, no watermarks, no daily limits and no premium tier.

Are my files uploaded to a server?

No. FileStripe processes your files locally in your web browser using JavaScript. Nothing is uploaded, so the Photo Resizer for Online Forms is safe for private photos and confidential documents and even works offline once the page has loaded.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The Photo Resizer for Online Forms works in Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Edge and Samsung Internet on phones, tablets and computers. On a phone you can pick files from your photo library or files app and share the result straight to another app.
