Other tools you may find usefulHow to Use the SSC Photo and Signature Tool
This is a local image file builder for your SSC application. It helps you prepare a face photo and a signature at the dimensions and KB range you enter yourself. You work with two files: the photo and the signature.
- In the photo field, choose a file with your face.
- In the signature field, choose a scan or a photo of your signature.
- Set the width and height in px, plus the minimum and maximum size in KB, for both items.
- Crop the photo and the signature in the cropping views.
- Click Prepare files.
Once you choose a file, a cropping view with a zoom slider appears. The slider works from 1 to 4. If either file is missing a crop, you will see the message Select both files: photo and signature. Then go back to file selection or finish cropping.
Required Photo and Signature Dimensions
In the tool you set the photo and signature parameters separately. For the photo you enter the width and height in px, plus the minimum and maximum size in KB. For the signature you do the same: width, height in px and a KB range.
| Item | What you set |
|---|---|
| Photo | width and height in px, minimum and maximum size in KB |
| Signature | width and height in px, minimum and maximum size in KB |
The starting values come from the exam settings, with "Other" as the default. They are editable, so you can match them to the current notice. Do not assume that one set of dimensions fits every SSC application. Before you fill in the form, compare the settings with the requirements published for your exam.
Cropping and Zooming by Aspect Ratio
Cropping appears after you choose a file. For the photo, the crop frame takes the aspect ratio of the width and height you set for the photo. For the signature, the ratio comes from the signature width and height. That way you do not have to check by hand whether the crop shape matches the target dimensions.
The zoom slider adjusts how large the image sits inside the frame. The slider range is 1 to 4, and the starting value is 1. If you change the width or height after choosing a file, cropping starts again with the new proportions. That is handy when you check the requirements first and adjust the settings afterwards.
You will get the best result when the source photo and signature are sharp, well lit and high enough in resolution. Zooming a small or blurry file will not improve its quality. Crop so that the face or the signature is clearly visible and centered according to the guidelines.
Compressing Files to a KB Range
After setting the dimensions, you enter the minimum and maximum size in KB for the photo and for the signature. The tool prepares both files for the KB range you chose. That means the photo is prepared at the given width and height, and the signature at its own dimensions, and both are then compressed into the range you specified.
The KB range affects quality. A smaller maximum size usually requires more compression, so fine details may become less clear. If the legibility of the signature and a natural-looking face matter to you, start with a good-quality source file and do not set an unnecessarily narrow range.
The tool prepares the photo and the signature separately. You do not choose the output file format separately. After you click Prepare files, you get files at the chosen dimensions and size, ready to compare against the application requirements.
Limitations and What the Tool Does Not Calculate
This is an image file builder, not an official application submission system. It does not check whether your photo and signature meet every condition of a specific notice. Requirements can differ from one exam to another, so always compare the finished files with the current guidelines.
- It does not replace the official SSC page or form.
- It is not meant for advanced image editing such as retouching a face or correcting handwriting.
- It does not judge whether the signature matches the format required by the institution.
- There is no separate output file format selector; check that the file you get matches the notice requirements.
- It does not store your files on a server — preparation happens locally on your device.
The quality of the result depends on the source file, the dimensions you set and the KB range. Keep in mind that the starting values are only a starting point and you can change them.
Frequently Asked Questions
What photo and signature dimensions does SSC require?
There is no single set of dimensions for every application. In the tool, the starting values come from the exam settings, with "Other" as the default, but you can change them. Before submitting, compare them with the current notice.
How do I prepare a photo and signature for an SSC application?
Choose your face photo file and your signature file. Set the width and height in px, plus the minimum and maximum size in KB, crop both items and click Prepare files. The tool will prepare files with the parameters you chose.
What should I do when the message Select both files: photo and signature appears?
The message appears when one of the files is missing a crop. Select the photo and the signature, finish cropping both, then click Prepare files again.
Can I change the width and height after choosing a file?
Yes. Changing the width or height of the photo or signature resets cropping with the new proportions if the file is already selected. It is best to set the dimensions from the notice first and crop afterwards.
How do I compress a photo and signature to a KB range?
Enter the minimum and maximum size in KB for the photo and the signature. The tool will compress both files into the range you specify. The smaller the maximum size, the greater the possible loss of quality.
Does the tool send the photo and signature to a server?
No. The files are prepared locally on your device, without being sent to a server. That gives you more control over your documents.
