Frequently Asked Questions
What is the size of an Aadhar card photo in KB?
For Aadhar online self-service workflows the photo is usually expected to be a JPEG below 100 KB. ImgPace's 100 KB compress chip auto-tunes JPEG quality until the file fits, with no perceptible loss for a well-cropped passport-size photo.
What is the photo dimension for Aadhar?
Standard passport size — 3.5 cm × 4.5 cm — which is 276 × 354 pixels at 200 DPI or 413 × 531 pixels at 300 DPI. Use the Passport preset in Resize to set this automatically.
Can I take an Aadhar photo with my phone?
Yes. Stand in front of a plain wall with even lighting, take a front-facing photo, then crop and resize using ImgPace's 3.5 : 4.5 ratio crop and Passport preset. Replace the background with white using Background Fill if needed.
Is my photo uploaded anywhere when I use this tool?
No. ImgPace processes everything in your browser using the Canvas API. Your photo never reaches our servers — particularly important for sensitive ID documents like Aadhar.
