How to complete ssc photo and signature resize online

1. Select your candidate signature scan or offline photograph using the upload pane above.
2. For signature uploads, select 6.0 cm x 2.0 cm proportions and set target size strictly between 10 KB and 20 KB.
3. For offline/scribe photograph uploads, set target size between 20 KB and 50 KB in JPG format.
4. Click the process button to initiate backend format conversion and size calibration.
5. Verify that your output meets SSC portal requirements and download it directly to your device.

Important portal updates for the new ssc.gov.in website

On the updated ssc.gov.in portal, standard candidate photographs are captured live via webcam during registration. Offline photo uploads (20 KB to 50 KB) remain necessary for scribe requests and special accommodations.

Candidate signature uploads are digital and required for all applicants. SSC enforces a strict 10 KB to 20 KB window; files outside this range are rejected immediately. Furthermore, the signature must be penned inside a 6.0 cm by 2.0 cm box and fill at least 80% of that space.

Uploaded files are processed on our server and deleted automatically after about an hour with regular 10-minute cleanup sweeps. No candidate records are retained.

Examinations governed by these SSC upload standards

SSC CGL, CHSL, MTS, Sub-Inspector in Delhi Police / CAPF (CPO), Junior Engineer (JE), and Constable (GD) share identical signature guidelines across ssc.gov.in.

Meeting the 10 KB to 20 KB signature gate on the first attempt avoids session timeouts during busy application deadlines.

Techniques for flawless SSC signature submissions

Draw a neat 6 cm by 2 cm box on blank white paper, sign clearly in the center using black ink, and crop tightly before uploading.

Never sign on ruled notebook paper. Ruled lines produce dark artifacts that interfere with automated verification algorithms.

Batch process multiple signature crops or certificate scans simultaneously (up to 25 MB per input file) to prepare documentation quickly.

Recommended Preset Settings for SSC Applications

Configure your settings to land right in the center of SSC tolerances:

Targeting 15 KB ensures your signature avoids both the 10 KB floor and 20 KB ceiling.

Why the SSC Gateway Rejects Candidate Signatures

The Staff Selection Commission rejects thousands of candidate forms each year for:

• Outside 10-20 KB Window: Signatures smaller than 10 KB or larger than 20 KB are blocked instantly by upload server scripts.
• Miniature Signature in Large Box: A tiny signature floating in an oversized white background fails scrutiny; signatures must fill 80% of the box.
• Ruled or Lined Paper Lines: Lines from notebook paper produce automated verification errors and trigger application cancellation.
• Blurry Mobile Shadows: Signatures photographed at an angle with mobile phone shadows are rejected for illegibility.
