How to use it
- Choose a recent passport-style photo and a photo or scan of your signature in black or dark blue ink on white paper.
- Choose whether the signature goes below or beside the photo, as your notice shows.
- Enter the width and height in pixels and the maximum KB from your notice. Left blank, the size is 300 × 450 px (below) or 600 × 300 px (beside).
- Add the text line only if the notice asks for it, tap Join, check the preview and download the JPEG.
How the two images are placed
With the signature below, the photo takes the top three quarters of the image and the signature the bottom quarter. With the signature beside, each takes half the width. The photo is cropped from the centre to fill its part, so keep your face in the middle of the original. The signature is never cropped: it is shrunk to fit its part on a white background, with a thin grey line between the two.
Check the rules in your notice first
Most forms still want the photo and the signature as two separate files, and uploading a joined image there gets the form rejected. Use this tool only when your notice or portal asks for one combined image, and copy its size and KB limit exactly. For separate files, use the photo and signature resizer instead.
Frequently asked questions
Are my photo and signature uploaded anywhere?
No. Both images are joined inside your browser. They do not leave your device, and they are gone when you close the page.
My face is cut off in the joined image. What should I do?
The photo is cropped from the centre to fill its part. Crop your original photo so your face is in the middle, or enter a width and height closer to your photo’s shape.
Can I write my name and date on the image?
Yes, in the optional text line, which is printed in black under the image. Add it only if your notice asks for it; the text stays on your device like the images.
Which format does it save in?
JPEG (.jpg), which application portals accept for photos and signatures.
The joined image is still over the KB limit. What now?
Enter a smaller width and height. A joined image of about 300 × 450 pixels usually fits under 50 KB.
