FILEMIGO / PRACTICAL GUIDE
Prepare a photo for a KB, pixel and format limit
An upload form can reject a perfectly clear photo because file size, dimensions and format are three separate requirements. Read the form first, then configure all three together.
Write down the exact requirements
For example, “JPG, 600 × 600 pixels, maximum 200 KB” describes three checks. A square photo can still exceed 200 KB. A small file can still have the wrong dimensions. Keep a copy of the original so you can try different settings.
Set pixels and composition
Enter the requested width and height. If the photo is not already square, choose crop to fill the square or fit to retain the whole photo with margins. Move the crop position before exporting so the face or important subject stays visible. Follow the receiving organization’s rules about margins and composition.
Choose a format and an upper size limit
Use the format requested by the form. JPG is usually suitable for photographs; PNG is useful when transparency or sharp graphic edges matter. JPG turns transparent areas white. A 200 KB target means at most 200 KB, not exactly 200 KB. Filemigo reports the resulting file size.
If the result still does not fit
A strict file limit and fixed pixel dimensions can conflict. Do not reduce required dimensions just to obtain a green size check. Inspect the result notice, adjust quality or use another accepted format. When dimensions are optional, automatic resizing can help reach a tighter size limit.
Verify the downloaded file
Check format, width, height and file size, then view the image at full size for blur around text and faces. The receiving service may use a different KB convention or additional checks. Matching pixels and KB does not guarantee biometric compliance or acceptance.
