Applying for the Delhi Subordinate Services Selection Board (DSSSB) is a significant step for many aspirants seeking government jobs. However, the application process through the OARS (Online Application Registration System) portal is known for its strict document guidelines. Thousands of applications are rejected every year simply because the uploaded Postcard-size photo or Signature does not meet the precise pixel and KB requirements.

Our DSSSB Document Resizer is a specialized utility designed to eliminate these technical hurdles. This tool ensures your images are converted exactly to the 480×672-pixel standard required by the board, helping you focus on your exam preparation rather than technical glitches.

Common Errors to Avoid During DSSSB Registration

To ensure your admit card is generated without issues, avoid these frequent mistakes:

  • Background Color: Never use a dark or colorful background. DSSSB strictly requires a plain white background.
  • Facial Clarity: Your face should cover at least 70–80% of the photo area. Both ears and shoulders must be clearly visible.
  • No Spectacles or Caps: Unless there is a medical necessity mentioned in the notification, it is safer to take the photo without spectacles to avoid light reflections on the lenses.
  • Blurry Signatures: Always sign on plain white paper with a thick black or blue ink pen before photographing it.
