Photo Size Checker — Check Pixels, KB and DPI Before You Upload

Find out exactly what the upload portal will see: the real file format, the width and height in pixels, the size in KB, the DPI stored in the file and the print size in centimetres. Pick your exam or ID form to get a pass or fail on each requirement, with a link to the resizer that fixes it. The photo is checked on your device and never uploaded.

To check a photo’s size, drop it in: the checker shows its format, pixel dimensions, file size in KB, stored DPI and print size in cm. Choose your exam (for example IBPS photo, 200×230 px, 20–50 KB) to see whether each requirement passes — and a one-click link to fix any that don’t.

100% private — your images never leave your device. No upload, no sign-up. Check it yourself: once this page loads, it works with your internet switched off.

Required photo dimensions and file sizes differ between forms and change over time. This tool helps you hit a common target, but always verify the exact requirement on the official form or notification before you submit.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

How do I check a photo’s size in KB?

Drop the photo into the checker. It shows the size in KB (1 KB = 1024 bytes, which is how most portals count) next to the pixel dimensions and format. Pick your exam to see whether the KB is inside its allowed range.
02

How do I check the pixel dimensions of a photo?

The checker reads the width × height in pixels straight from the file. Exam portals compare these with their spec (for example 200 × 230 px for IBPS) — the checker tells you if they match exactly or if the shape is different.
03

What does DPI mean for an exam photo?

DPI is a number stored in the file that says how many pixels make an inch when printed. It does not change the pixels, but some portals read it (PAN asks for 200 DPI). The checker shows the stored DPI and the print size it implies in centimetres.
04

The portal says my JPG is invalid, but it looks fine.

The file may be a PNG or HEIC renamed to .jpg — the checker shows the real format from the file’s bytes. Running it through any resizer on this site saves a genuine JPG.
05

Is my photo uploaded anywhere?

No. The tool runs inside your browser, so your photo is read and processed on your own phone or computer and never sent to our servers or anyone else's. We never receive it, so we can't see, keep or share it — which makes it safe for sensitive documents like Aadhaar, PAN, passports and bank statements.
06

Is this tool really free? Is there a daily limit?

Yes, it's free with no daily limit. Because the work happens on your device, an extra photo costs us nothing — so there's no cap, no watermark and no account needed. Process as many files as you like.
