Increase Photo Size in KB
Some forms reject a file for being too small. This page makes it larger, and tells you whether the pixels changed.
- No upload
- No watermark
- No login
Preset figures last checked 10 November 2026. A portal may count KB as 1,000 or 1,024 bytes, so the file is kept inside both.
Your files never leave this device. There is no account and no watermark on the download.
When the form needs a minimum KB
Type the minimum, for example 50. The download is a JPEG at or above that size in decimal KB. This is the opposite of Compress image to 50 KB, which makes files smaller.
Pad the file without changing pixels
“Keep the same pixels and pad the file” leaves the picture as it is and adds JPEG comment data until the file is big enough. It does not look sharper. Use this when the notice cares about KB and you must not resample.
Upscale when you also need a larger picture
Upscale resamples to more pixels, up to about 3×, and says so. It cannot invent detail the camera never captured. If the file is still short, the rest is padding.
Photo size in KB and centimetres
This page does not crop to centimetres. If you also need a print size, make the crop in Passport size photo or Resize image in KB, then come back only if the file is under the minimum.
