About this tool and size
Why 3.5 × 4.5 cm has two pixel sizes
A digital image has no centimetres, only pixels. The DPI (dots per inch) links the two, and one inch is 2.54 cm. So 3.5 cm at 200 DPI is 3.5 ÷ 2.54 × 200 ≈ 276 pixels, and 4.5 cm is about 354. At 300 DPI the same photo needs 413 × 531 pixels, which is sharper in print but a larger file.
CTET is one exam that asks for exactly this: a 3.5 × 4.5 cm photo at 200 DPI (276 × 354 px) between 10 and 100 KB. If your exam has a kit on SahiSize, open it instead; the KB range is already set there.
- 200 DPI: 276 × 354 px
- 300 DPI: 413 × 531 px
- Same size in millimetres: 35 × 45 mm
Tips for a photo that gets accepted
Let the face fill most of the frame with both ears visible, look straight at the camera and use a plain white or light background. Avoid caps, dark glasses and beauty filters. Save as JPG, the format nearly every portal accepts.
How to use it
- Add your photo. Pick a recent front-facing picture, ideally taken against a plain light wall in daylight.
- Choose the DPI. 200 DPI suits almost every online form. Pick 300 DPI when the notice asks for it or you plan to print.
- Add a KB limit. If the form says something like "maximum 50 KB", type 50 in Max size. Otherwise leave it empty.
- Download. When the pass check shows ticks for pixels and size, save the JPG.
Questions
What is 3.5 cm × 4.5 cm in pixels?
At 200 DPI it is 276 × 354 pixels; at 300 DPI it is 413 × 531 pixels. The rule is pixels = centimetres ÷ 2.54 × DPI, rounded to whole pixels.
Is 4.5 cm × 3.5 cm in pixels any different?
No. It is the same photo, just written height first. The photo stands upright: 3.5 cm wide and 4.5 cm tall, so 276 × 354 px at 200 DPI.
Will my face get stretched?
No. If your picture has a different shape, the tool trims a little from the edges and keeps the centre, so proportions stay natural. Keep your face in the middle when you take it.
Which DPI should I pick?
Use the one your notice states. When it gives none, 200 DPI is the usual choice for online forms; the DPI value is also written into the JPG.
