Driving Licence Photo Resizer
Resize photo & signature for DL (Sarathi) uploads
What is Driving Licence Photo Resizer?
Driving Licence Photo Resizer is a free Farvixo tool that lets you resize photo & signature for DL (Sarathi) uploads. It applies the issuing authority's published rules for pixel dimensions, file size, DPI and background, so the file is accepted the first time. Identity documents are processed entirely in your browser and are never uploaded anywhere.
How to use Driving Licence Photo Resizer
Add your file to Driving Licence Photo Resizer. It is processed entirely in your browser — important for identity documents, which never reach a server here.
Choose the form or authority you are applying to. Driving Licence Photo Resizer applies that body's exact rules for dimensions, file size, background and DPI, so you are not guessing at the requirements.
Save a file that already matches the upload specification, ready to submit without rejection for the wrong size or format.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does the Sarathi portal require?
Specific pixel dimensions and a file-size range for both photo and signature, checked together at upload. This preset applies the current published specification so the upload is accepted first time.
Can I do the photo and signature in one go?
Yes, and you should — the portal asks for both at the same stage, and each has its own specification. Handling them together avoids getting halfway through and having to start again.
Why does the upload keep failing?
Most often the file is within the size limit but at the wrong pixel dimensions, or the reverse. Both are enforced simultaneously. For the signature, a grey background from uneven lighting is the other frequent cause.
Is my identity document uploaded?
No. Processing happens entirely in your browser and nothing reaches our servers — which is exactly why these tools are built this way.
How should I capture my signature?
Sign in dark ink on plain white paper and photograph it flat under even light. A shadow across the paper produces the grey background that Sarathi rejects.
What you can use Driving Licence Photo Resizer for
- Applying online where the portal rejects photos for being the wrong size or file weight
- Preparing photo and signature files for an exam registration before the deadline
- Anyone who does not want an identity document passing through a third-party server
- Fixing a submission that was already rejected for a specification mismatch

Tips for better results
- Photograph against a plain light background in even daylight — no flash shadow behind the head.
- Confirm the specification against the portal you are actually applying on; requirements differ between authorities and occasionally change.
- Keep the compliant output file. Most applications ask for the same photo again at a later stage.
Common problems and how to fix them
The portal rejected the file for size
Portals enforce both pixel dimensions and a KB range. Select the exact portal preset rather than a generic resize, so both limits are met at once.
The face is cropped wrongly
Official specs fix the proportion of the frame the head must occupy. Re-upload a photo taken further back so there is room to crop correctly.
The background is not accepted
Shadows and off-white walls fail an automated background check. Re-shoot against a plain white or light-grey surface with even lighting.
