What 472 × 236 pixels is for

A 2:1 signature strip, wider than the common 3:1 shapes, so a signature sized for another form will sit with space to either side. That is acceptable, but a signature floating in the middle of a wide field reads as smaller than it is - crop closer to the ink first.

Forms that require exactly 472 × 236

These forms state 472 × 236 pixels in their own notice, linked below. Specs change with each cycle, so confirm against the notice for your year before you submit.

Exact size, or fit inside it

With "Keep aspect ratio" on, the image is fitted inside 472 × 236 without stretching, so one side may end up smaller than the target. Turn it off to get exactly 472 × 236, which stretches the picture if its shape does not match. For a form that rejects anything but the exact size, crop to the right shape first and then resize - that way nothing is distorted.

Limitations

Enlarging a small image to this size cannot add detail that was never captured.
The tool checks dimensions, file size and format - not whether the photo itself meets a form’s rules on pose, background or how recent it is.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make an image exactly 472 × 236 pixels?

Drop it here and turn off "Keep aspect ratio" - the result is exactly 472 × 236. Leave it on and the image is fitted inside that box instead, keeping its shape.

Will it stretch my photo?

Only with "Keep aspect ratio" turned off and a source image of a different shape. Crop to the right proportions first if you want the exact size without distortion.

Which form needs 472 × 236 px?

UPPSC OTR scanning guidelines (2022). Each figure was read from that notice - confirm against your own before submitting.

Will resizing blur the image?

Making an image smaller uses Lanczos-3 resampling, which keeps edges crisp. Enlarging cannot invent detail that was never captured, so a large upscale will always look soft.

Is my image uploaded?

No. It is resized in your browser, on your device. Nothing is sent to a server, which matters when the image is an ID photo or a signature.

Is it free?

Yes - free, no signup, no watermark and no limit on how many images you resize.
