Type in centimeters, millimeters, inches, or pixels and view instant live conversions across all four unit systems with aspect ratio locking.
Compare your dimensions across 72 DPI (Web), 96 DPI (Desktop), 150 DPI (State portals), 200 DPI (Official Sarkari standard), and 300 DPI (Archival print).
Send your converted dimensions into the Photo & Image Resizer with one click to compress your photograph under 50 KB or 20 KB without manual re-typing.
Why recruitment commissions prescribe DPI and physical dimensions instead of just pixel counts.
Since 1 inch = 2.54 cm = 25.4 mm, DPI directly links the virtual pixel world to the physical print world.
| Exam Item | Physical (cm) | Pixels @ 200 DPI |
|---|---|---|
| SSC / IBPS Photo | 3.5 × 4.5 cm | 276 × 354 px |
| SSC Signature | 4.0 × 2.0 cm | 315 × 157 px |
| IBPS Thumb Impression | 3.0 × 3.0 cm | 240 × 240 px |
| Hand Declaration | 10.0 × 5.0 cm | 800 × 400 px |
DPI (Dots Per Inch) refers to physical printing or scanning density, while PPI (Pixels Per Inch) refers to digital display density. In digital exam forms, both terms are used interchangeably to indicate how many pixels make up one inch of the image.
If the portal strictly validates DPI metadata, the upload will be rejected with an error like "Resolution must be 200 DPI". Using our Photo Resizer tool automatically encodes the official 200 DPI metadata header into the output JPEG file.
Locking the aspect ratio ensures your photo never appears stretched, squashed, or distorted when modifying either width or height.
Yes. Type 21 cm width and 29.7 cm height. At 200 DPI, an A4 page is 1654 × 2339 pixels; at 300 DPI, it is 2480 × 3508 pixels.
