KPSC refuses a photo above 50 KB (the allowed range is 20–50 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 35 KB rather than right at the limit.
The KPSC photo should be 200 × 230 px. A photo in a different shape gets squashed or refused, so crop it to that shape before shrinking; the tool above does both.
KPSC refuses a signature above 20 KB (the allowed range is 10–20 KB). Phone photos are usually 2–5 MB, so compress it to around 15 KB rather than right at the limit.
A clean signature on white paper is often only a few KB, below the 10 KB minimum for KPSC. FitMyKB raises the quality first and then adds invisible padding, so the file reaches 10 KB without changing how it looks.
The KPSC signature should be 140 × 60 px. A signature in a different shape gets squashed or refused, so crop it to that shape before shrinking; the tool above does both.
KPSC wants a plain white or light background. A coloured wall, curtain or room behind you can get the photo rejected at verification, weeks later. Turn on White background and it's replaced for you.
The KPSC portal takes JPG files. iPhone photos are HEIC and screenshots are PNG, and renaming a file to .jpg doesn't convert it. Drop the original into the tool: it always saves a genuine JPG.
KPSC asks for the photo as a JPG: 200 × 230 px · 20–50 KB · white background.
KPSC asks for the signature as a JPG: 140 × 60 px · 10–20 KB.
