Forms for exams, jobs and government services often ask for a photo under a certain size, such as 20 KB or 100 KB. Pick the limit and this tool searches for the best quality that fits, and makes the picture smaller in pixels only if needed. You see the final size before you download it. Everything stays on your device.

Tips
Tips for the best result
Passport and signature photos are usually fine at 20 to 50 KB.
If the limit is very small, the picture is also scaled down so it can fit.
Use the Image Resizer first if the form also asks for exact pixel dimensions.
Questions
Frequently asked questions
Will the result be exactly the size I picked?
It will be at or just under the target. The tool picks the highest quality that still fits.
What if the target is too small?
The picture is scaled down in steps. If it still cannot fit, you get the smallest version and a note.
Are my files uploaded to a server?
No. The work happens inside your browser on your own device. Your files are never sent to us or to anyone else, and they are gone when you close the page.
