BPSC Photo & Signature Resizer — Live Photo, Hindi & English Signature
Prepare your BPSC application images online. Resize, compress and preview your Hindi and English signature files before uploading them through the BPSC OTR portal.
Important
BPSC's current OTR process uses a live webcam photo rather than a pre-saved photograph upload. Hindi and English signatures are prepared as separate image files. The specifications below are based on the BPSC User Manual; if your specific recruitment advertisement gives different instructions, follow that advertisement.
What You Need for a BPSC Application
BPSC OTR involves more than uploading a photograph and one signature. Before starting, keep these items ready:
- A working webcam and a well-lit place for the live photograph
- English signature
- Hindi signature
- Matriculation and educational documents
- Category, EWS or residence documents where applicable
- Experience or other certificates required for your post
Keeping these ready before opening the application can make the OTR process easier and reduce interruptions while completing your profile.
BPSC Live Photo: What to Expect
The BPSC OTR process captures the photograph live through your webcam. You do not prepare a normal JPG photograph for this particular step. Before starting the photo capture, check the following:
| Check | What to do |
|---|---|
| Webcam | Make sure your camera is working and available to the browser |
| Position | Sit straight and face the camera |
| Lighting | Use even lighting and avoid strong light behind you |
| Background | Keep the background plain and light |
| Face | Keep your face clearly visible in the camera frame |
| Clothing/accessories | Avoid caps, masks, sunglasses and other items that obstruct the face |
Note
A saved photograph cannot be substituted for the live capture in this OTR step, so checking your camera before you begin can save time.
BPSC Signature Requirements: Hindi & English
BPSC OTR requires separate Hindi and English signature files.
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| File size | Under 20 KB |
| Width | 150–220 px |
| Height | 250–320 px |
| Format | JPG / JPEG |
| Signature files | Separate Hindi and English files |
Prepare the two files separately, for example signature-english.jpg and signature-hindi.jpg. For both signatures: write clearly on plain paper, use the language required for that upload field, keep the complete handwriting inside the image, remove unnecessary blank space around the signature, and make sure the signature remains readable after compression.
Using clear filenames also reduces the chance of uploading the Hindi signature into the English field or vice versa.

How to Prepare Your BPSC Signature Files
You can prepare both signature files using the same basic workflow. Resize your signature with our Signature Resizer, remove extra blank space with Crop Signature Online, and bring the file under the KB limit with our Signature Compressor.
- 1
Sign
Write your English signature and Hindi signature separately on clean paper.
- 2
Capture
Scan or photograph each signature in good lighting.
- 3
Crop
Remove unnecessary white space while keeping the complete handwriting visible.
- 4
Resize
Adjust the image to the required 150–220 px width and 250–320 px height.
- 5
Compress
Bring each file below 20 KB while keeping the signature readable.
- 6
Save
Use separate filenames such as signature-english.jpg and signature-hindi.jpg.
- 7
Preview
Open both final files once before uploading them to BPSC OTR.
Tip
Start with a clear original rather than trying to improve a blurry signature through compression.
BPSC OTR Documents to Keep Ready
Your photograph and signatures are only part of the OTR preparation. Depending on your recruitment and category, keep the following information and documents available:
- Matriculation (10th) certificate and details
- Educational certificates and marksheets
- Category certificate, where applicable
- EWS certificate, where applicable
- Residence or domicile document, where required
- Non-creamy layer certificate, where applicable
- Experience certificate for posts that require experience
- Disability certificate, where applicable
- Aadhaar or other identification details
Not every applicant will need every document. The requirements depend on the recruitment, post and category being claimed.
BPSC OTR Workflow
The overall process can be understood like this: OTR → Profile Information → Photo & Signatures → Profile Lock → Select Advertisement → Application → Payment → Application Print.
Check Your Profile Before Locking It
Take extra care with information such as:
- Name
- Father's name
- Mother's name
- Gender
- Date of birth
- Aadhaar details
- Other identity information
Some profile information may not be editable through the normal process after the profile is locked. Compare important details with your original documents before proceeding.
Common BPSC Upload Problems
| Upload Problem | Quick Solution |
|---|---|
| Live photo does not capture | Check browser camera permissions, make sure the correct webcam is selected and move to a location with better lighting if the camera image is unclear. |
| Signature is rejected | Check the required dimensions and make sure the file is under 20 KB. Also confirm that the complete signature is visible and the image is in JPG/JPEG format. |
| Hindi and English signatures are mixed up | Keep the files separately named as signature-english.jpg and signature-hindi.jpg, and check the field label before selecting each file. |
| Signature looks blurry | Start again with a clearer scan or photograph. Increasing compression on an already poor-quality image will usually make the handwriting less readable. |
| Profile details do not match your documents | Compare your name, date of birth, category and other important information with the original certificates before locking your profile. |

Frequently Asked Questions
Does BPSC require a live photograph?
Yes. The current BPSC OTR process captures the photograph live through a webcam rather than asking you to upload a previously saved photograph for this step.
What is the BPSC signature size?
The BPSC OTR User Manual specifies a file size of under 20 KB, with a width of 150–220 pixels and a height of 250–320 pixels, in JPG/JPEG format.
Does BPSC require both Hindi and English signatures?
Yes. The OTR process requires separate Hindi and English signature files. Save them separately and upload each to its corresponding field.
What documents are required for BPSC OTR?
The exact documents depend on the recruitment and your category. Common items include the 10th certificate, educational records, category/EWS/residence documents and experience certificates where applicable.
Can I prepare my BPSC signature using a mobile phone?
Yes. You can photograph or scan your handwritten signature using a phone, crop the unnecessary area, resize it and compress the final image before uploading.
Will resizing make my signature blurry?
It can if the original image is poor or the file is compressed too aggressively. Start with a clear signature and check the preview after resizing and compression.
What should I do if my BPSC signature is above 20 KB?
Crop unnecessary blank space first and then reduce the file size gradually. Keep checking the final image so the handwriting remains clear while bringing the file below the required limit.
Is the BPSC Photo & Signature Resizer free?
Yes. You can prepare your images online without installing additional software or creating an account.
Are my images stored on the server?
