Unlike most national recruitments that use square or 3.5x4.5 cm templates, the UPPSC portal enforces a rectangular aspect ratio. These documents are stored permanently in your OTR profile, which makes getting the files correct the first time crucial.
UPPSC OTR Dimensions & File Specifications
The official UPPSC guidelines mandate scanning your files with these parameters:

Key Rules for UPPSC Scans
- Ink Specifications: Signatures must be written on plain white paper using a black ink pen in running hand. Initials or capital letter signatures are strictly banned.
- Resolution & DPI: Both files must be scanned in true color at 200 DPI. OptiKit automatically injects this DPI metadata in the output JPG.
- Photo rules: The photo must have a white or light gray background. Face should cover the maximum part of the photo area.
In-Browser Local Processing
Your photograph and signature are parsed in-browser using HTML5 canvas. No data is sent to external servers, protecting your identity scans.
