Exact size: 140 × 60

Resize a signature to 140 × 60 px

The 140 × 60 box is preset with a 20 KB cap, in Contain mode so no stroke is cut off. Swap to Crop only when the form allows trimming.

Processed in this browser tab — nothing is uploaded, stored or logged.

Short answer: scan the signature on plain paper, add it here, and the panel already targets 140 × 60 px under 20 KB. Keep Contain so the full stroke survives, export as JPEG on white unless the portal asks for PNG, then open the downloaded file to check it.

Why forms ask for 140 × 60

It is a wide, thin box that matches the shape of a handwritten signature. At that size there are only 8,400 pixels, so the pen stroke must be dark and the background clean; a grey, low-contrast scan turns into a smudge after compression. Cropping tightly before resizing does more for legibility than any quality setting.

The 10–20 KB window

No background removal, no stroke repair, no OCR — this tool resizes and re-encodes, and says so. Clean the scan before uploading if the paper is grey.

Questions

Is 140 × 60 the size every exam portal wants?

No. It is one of the most common signature boxes on Indian recruitment forms, usually with a 10–20 KB window, but notifications differ and some ask for 140 × 70 or 200 × 80. Enter the numbers your form prints — this page presets 140 × 60 because it is the most frequent request.

My signature is only 5 KB but the form wants 10–20 KB. How do I make it bigger?

A cap cannot create bytes. Scan or photograph the signature at a larger size (for example 300 × 130 px), then let the cap hold it under 20 KB. More detail in the source means more bytes in the file. This page only enforces the upper bound.

Contain or Crop for a signature?

Contain, which is the default here: it keeps the whole signature visible and fills any spare space with the background colour. Crop trims the edges and can cut the last stroke of a long signature, which is exactly the detail a clerk checks.

Why does my PNG signature get a white or black background?

JPEG has no transparency channel, so transparent pixels are flattened onto the colour you pick (white by default). Keep PNG output if the portal accepts it and the signature must stay transparent.

Will 140 × 60 make the signature blurry?

It can, because a thin pen stroke has very few pixels at that size. Scan at 300 DPI or more, crop tightly around the signature, and keep JPEG quality high. If your form allows 200 × 80, the extra pixels make a visible difference.

Is the signature uploaded to a server?

No. The image is read with the browser file API and re-encoded on a canvas in this tab. There is no upload endpoint, and the download is created from memory.
