About

A 100 KB limit appears on handwritten-declaration uploads, university forms and many scholarship portals. It is generous enough that a 1000 px photo usually fits at high quality, so most of the work is choosing the right quality rather than shrinking pixels.

Worked example: a 2.4 MB portrait from a camera at 3000 × 4000 px is capped to 750 × 1000 px. At that size a high quality typically lands around 90 KB, a little under the 100 KB ceiling, with no scaling at all. A plain-background photo might fit even at 95%, in which case the tool stops after one encode. Check the result line for the exact KB and pixels before you download.

FAQ

What if my photo is already under 100 KB?+
If it is under the 60 KB floor after re-encoding at high quality, the tool pads the file with blank bytes to reach the minimum. Set Min KB to 0 to skip that.
Will the file keep my camera details or location?+
The output is redrawn on a canvas and saved as a new JPG, so camera EXIF data such as GPS location is not copied into it.
Which pixel size should I use?+
Use the size your form names. If it names none, leave the fields blank: the tool keeps proportions and caps the long side at 1000 px.
Is my photo sent to a server?+
The tool is designed to run in your browser: the photo is cropped, compressed and saved on your device, and the page does not need an account. Close the tab and the in-memory copy is gone.
