SSC signature (CGL, CHSL)

JPEGAbout 6.0 × 2.0 cm10 KB to 20 KB

SSC asks for a scanned signature as a JPEG between 10 KB and 20 KB, about 6.0 x 2.0 cm. A clean signature is often under 10 KB, so it is padded up to the minimum without changing it.

Getting an SSC signature to 10 KB to 20 KB

The 2026 notices for the Combined Graduate Level (CGL) and Combined Higher Secondary Level (CHSL) examinations ask for a scanned signature in JPEG format, between 10 KB and 20 KB, about 6.0 cm wide and 2.0 cm high. They state that blurred or miniature signatures will be rejected.

This page makes the signature 600 x 200 pixels, the same 3 to 1 shape, cropped where you place the crop box. It is saved at the best quality under 20 KB, and if that comes out under 10 KB it is padded up to it with an invisible comment inside the file. The signature is exactly the same.

Tips

  • Sign on plain white paper and take the photo close around the signature, so it fills the crop box.
  • Your photograph is not uploaded: SSC captures it live with your webcam or phone while you fill in the form.
  • Each SSC notice sets its own rules. If yours states a different size, set it in the options before you compress.

Requirements from SSC's Combined Higher Secondary Level Examination 2026 notice, checked 7 October 2026. Forms change their rules, so check the form itself if something is rejected.

How it works

  1. 1

    Drop your file

    A PDF or an image. It goes over an encrypted connection and nowhere else.

  2. 2

    Pick your limit

    Choose the size the form asks for. We start with a cleanup that changes nothing you can see.

  3. 3

    Download it

    If it needs more, we find the gentlest quality setting that still fits, and delete everything soon after.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes. There is no sign-up and no watermark.

What happens to my file?

It is processed on our server and deleted automatically: the original 5 minutes after the run finishes, the compressed file after 10. A file you upload but never compress is deleted within 30 minutes. You can also delete everything right away with Delete now.

Will it look worse?

We try a lossless cleanup first, which does not change how the file looks. Only if that is not enough do we lower image quality, and we pick the gentlest setting that still fits your size.

What if my file cannot get that small?

You get the smallest version we could make and a clear note saying so, instead of a file that silently misses the limit.

Why does the size page aim a little under its limit?

Some sites count a kilobyte as 1000 bytes and others as 1024. We aim under the stricter one, so a 200 KB page aims for 200,000 bytes and the file passes either way.
