Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

What is the standard size of a signature for online applications?

Most portals require signatures to be 140 x 60 pixels (equivalent to 3.5 cm in width by 1.5 cm in height) and between 10 KB and 20 KB in file size.

Can I sign in capital letters?

No. Most exam boards (like SSC and IBPS) explicitly state that signatures in CAPITAL (BLOCK) letters will be rejected. Always use your running handwriting.

What ink color should I use to sign?

Use black ink or blue ink on plain white paper. Black ink is strongly recommended as it scanned with much higher contrast, reducing rejection risks.

Why is my signature scan showing a gray background?

This is caused by poor lighting during photo capture. You can adjust the contrast in our editor or crop the signature closely to clean up grey borders.

Is my scanned signature safe from misuse?

Yes. Our tool is built entirely client-side using JavaScript. Your signature image is processed inside your browser memory and is never uploaded to our servers.

What format should the signature be saved in?

Portals strictly require JPG or JPEG formats. Our resizer automatically converts PNG or WEBP scans into standard JPEGs on download.

How can I compress my signature to under 20 KB?

Input '20' in the target size box in the editor. The tool will automatically optimize the output quality to keep the file size under 20 KB.

Does this tool work on mobile devices?

Yes. The interface is responsive and touch-enabled. You can capture your signature with your phone camera and resize it instantly.

Why is my signature file showing as too small?

Some portals have a minimum size of 10 KB. If your signature is under 10 KB, increase the target size or resolution settings in the resizer before exporting.

Can I use this tool to resize my photograph too?

Yes, you can select the 'Passport Photo' preset or use our dedicated Passport Size Photo Maker tool.
