How exact-KB compression works

This adjusts JPG/WEBP quality and, if needed, slightly reduces pixel dimensions until the file lands just under your target — typically with a small safety margin so a strict portal doesn't reject it for being a byte over. The compression runs on a background thread when your browser supports it, so the page stays responsive even on a large photo. Your file is never sent to a server — everything happens on your device.

When you need a 10 KB signature

The strictest signature tier in common use, found on some defence and police recruitment forms.

Sign in dark ink on plain white paper and crop tightly around the signature before uploading — busy backgrounds use up your size budget fast.
