Frequently asked questions

Why do exam portals reject my photo?

Usually because the width, height, DPI, file size or format doesn't match the rules. The validator checks all of these so you know before you upload.

Which exams does this help with?

It is useful for UPSC, SSC, Kerala PSC and many other competitive exams that specify exact photo requirements.

What is DPI and why does it matter?

DPI is the print resolution of an image. Some portals require a minimum DPI; the validator reads and reports it for you.

Can it fix the photo too?

The validator checks the photo. If it fails, use the resize and compress tools to correct the size and KB.
