How to Resize Photo and Signature for Driving Licence
- Open the Photo tab and upload a recent passport-style colour photograph. Drag the preview and use Zoom to centre your face.
- Open the Signature tab and upload a signature made with black pen on white paper. Adjust the crop until the full signature fits.
- Enter the applicant name if you want it included in the download file names, then download the JPEG files.
- For one download containing both files, open Both + ZIP, prepare both images, and select Download ZIP.
Common Mistakes That Get Your Driving Licence Photo Rejected
A blurry image, a dark or patterned background, a cropped head, or a signature that is unclear can cause problems. Using a screenshot or an image that is already below the minimum file size can also make the upload unacceptable.
Tips to Get It Right the First Time
Face the camera directly with a relaxed expression and use even lighting. Wear no cap or dark glasses, and make sure normal glasses do not reflect light. Sign only on white paper so the signature remains clear after compression.
Is This Tool Safe?
Yes. The browser performs the crop, resize, DPI metadata update, compression, and ZIP creation locally. Your photograph and signature are not uploaded, stored, or sent to any server.
