How do I compress an image to 20KB?

How do I get a signature under 20KB without it looking blurry?
Sign on plain white paper with a dark pen, photograph it in daylight, and crop tightly around the signature before compressing. A tight crop leaves fewer pixels, so each one keeps more detail at 20KB.
Why is 20KB such a common limit?
Many recruitment and exam portals keep upload limits small so that lakhs of applications load quickly. Signatures are often limited to 10KB to 20KB. Always check your form's official notification for the exact range.

Questions people ask
Can I compress a photo to 10KB or 15KB?
Yes. Type 10 or 15 in the Custom size box. For very small sizes, crop the image first for the best result.
Will my photo become exactly 20KB?
It will be just under 20KB, which portals accept because they check for a maximum size.
Is my signature uploaded anywhere?
No. The compression runs on your device and nothing is sent to a server.
How do I compress a photo to exactly 100KB?
Pick the 100KB target. The tool finds the best quality that fits under 100KB and only shrinks the dimensions if it has to.
Will compressing reduce quality?
Slightly, but at 70–85% quality the difference is hard to see while the file gets much smaller.
