JEE Main Photo & Signature Size — 10–200 KB, 10–100 KB, Correct File Names

What size — and what file name — do I need?

Your photo must be a JPG between 10 KB and 200 KB, and the file must be named Photograph.jpg. Your signature must be a JPG between 10 KB and 100 KB, named Signature.jpg, and clearly legible.

Size alone is not enough for JEE Main — a correctly sized file with the wrong name can still be rejected. The JEE Main preset handles both: it targets a size inside the range and downloads the file with the exact required name. Always double-check the current session's bulletin before you submit.

How to resize for JEE Main

1. Open the Exam Photo & Signature Resizer (the button above takes you straight there).
2. Choose Photo or Signature at the top of the tool.
3. Under “Choose your exam”, select the JEE Main preset.
4. Add your photo or signature — tap to choose the file, or drop it in.
5. Position it inside the frame and use the zoom slider if you need to — the frame crops, nothing is stretched.
6. Tap Create my file, check the size shown is inside the required range, then tap Download. Your download is already named Photograph.jpg or Signature.jpg, exactly as the bulletin requires — do not rename it to anything else.

Why was my file rejected?

The portal says the photo should be between 10 KB and 200 KB — how do I fix it?

Open the Exam Photo & Signature Resizer, choose Photo, select the JEE Main preset, add your photo and tap Create my file. Check the size shown is inside the 10–200 KB range, then download — the file arrives named Photograph.jpg.

What should my JEE Main photo file be named?

Photograph.jpg. The signature file must be named Signature.jpg. The Resizer's JEE Main preset downloads your files with exactly these names.

My signature is the right size but was rejected — what else could be wrong?

Check three things, in this order: the file name (Signature.jpg), the format (JPG), and the size range (10–100 KB). A correct size with a wrong file name is the most common cause.

Can I do this on my phone without uploading my photo?

Yes. FormReady runs in your phone's browser and processes the file on your device — nothing is uploaded.

Will this guarantee acceptance?

No. No tool can guarantee acceptance — verify your files against the current session's official bulletin before you submit.

Prepare everything at once

Preparing every document for the form? The Document Pack prepares them together and downloads them in one ZIP. Before you upload, run each file through the Document Validator — it checks size, format and dimensions against the verified specs and only checks; it never changes your file. If a file is just over or just under size, the Image Compressor adjusts it to an exact KB.
