About this tool

A 300 KB limit is common for documents and larger photos. It is enough to keep text readable on a scanned page. Choose your photo and this tool finds the highest quality that still fits under 300 KB.

How to use it

  1. Choose your photo.
  2. Check that the target size says 300 KB.
  3. Press Resize & Compress.
  4. Download the file and use it on your form.

Keeping text readable at 300 KB

At 300 KB, a scanned page of text stays readable at about 1200 pixels wide. Text needs sharper edges than a face, so it needs more room.

If the text looks fuzzy after compression, choose a slightly larger limit or avoid shrinking the page too much. Zoom in on the result before you submit it.

Common questions

Will the file be exactly 300 KB?

It will be 300 KB or a little smaller. The tool picks the best quality that stays under the limit.

The result is still too big or too blurry. What now?

Lower the width and height slightly, then compress again.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The photo is processed inside your browser and never leaves your device.

Is 300 KB enough for a certificate?

Often yes, if the scan is clear and not too large in pixels. Always check the result at full zoom.
