Frequently asked
Real questions, written for someone applying right now.
JEE Main accepts JPG only, right?
Yes — only JPG/JPEG files are accepted. PNG, HEIC, WebP will be rejected. Our tool outputs JPG by default for this preset.
My passport-size photo is colour. JEE wants colour or B&W?
Colour is preferred. Black-and-white may be accepted but is less common. Use a recent colour photo with neutral expression and white background.
I uploaded my JEE Main photo earlier — can I reuse it?
If your application is for the same session and the photo meets current specs (re-check the latest notification — they sometimes change KB ranges between sessions), yes. Otherwise re-process and re-upload.
What about thumbprint?
JEE Main asks for thumb impression separately — usually 240×240 px JPG within 50 KB. Our tool can be used with custom dimensions for this; or wait for our dedicated thumb-impression preset.
Need a different size?
Use our generic tools — they accept any KB target and any dimension you need.
