Why is the portal rejecting my upload?
Most application rejections are caused by hidden dimension or background mismatches rather than KB limits alone.
TNPSC rejects photo: 'Missing Name and Date on photograph'
Cause: TNPSC OTR explicitly mandates candidate name and date of taking photo inscribed at the bottom.
Fix: Use ToolKB's Photo Name & Date tool (/photo-name-date) to stamp your name and date before compression.
File size below 20KB rejected
Cause: Compressor over-compressed file below TNPSC 20KB limit.
Fix: ToolKB sets the target to 45KB.
Signature upload rejected as exceeding 20KB
Cause: TNPSC signature has a strict 20KB ceiling.
Fix: ToolKB's TNPSC Signature preset clamps output to 15KB.
Aspect ratio distorted from 200×230 px
Cause: Uploading non-standard dimensions.
Fix: ToolKB's preset locks the exact 200 × 230 px canvas.
Signature in capital letters rejected
Cause: TNPSC mandates natural running handwriting.
Fix: Sign in running script on white paper.
Phone camera shadow obscuring facial features
Cause: Indoor lighting casting shadow on chin/neck.
Fix: Retake in direct daylight facing a window.
