Crop a portrait to printed passport photo dimensions, adjust its position and download a JPG or A4 photo sheet. Includes US, UK and custom printed sizes.
Printed dimensions and digital application instructions must be checked separately.
Two inches at 300 pixels per inch equals 600 pixels. Print the PDF at 100% and check the full official photo rules.
A crop guide does not certify head size, expression, lighting or acceptance.
Prepare a printed passport-style photo from a suitable original portrait. Choose a US two-inch square, UK thirty-five by forty-five millimeter printed preset, or custom dimensions. Adjust zoom and horizontal or vertical placement while inspecting the live crop.
The dotted head guide is a positioning aid rather than a biometric measurement. It is not a face detector and does not verify expression, lighting, head size, photo age or background acceptability. The tool does not retouch faces or replace backgrounds. Consult the linked official guidance for your application and use a new suitable photograph when required.
Download a JPEG with a pixel grid calculated at three hundred pixels per printed inch, or an A4 PDF sheet with repeated photos at the selected physical dimensions. Print the PDF at actual size rather than fit-to-page. Printed dimensions and online application rules are different; for example, UK digital guidance tells applicants not to crop their own photo.
Use a clear, well-lit PNG, JPG or WebP photo. Check the official rules for the intended application.
Choose a printed US or UK preset, or enter custom width and height between ten and one hundred millimeters.
Adjust zoom and position. Toggle the approximate guide and inspect the face, shoulders and surrounding space.
Download the JPEG or A4 PDF. Print the sheet at one hundred percent scale and measure a photo before submitting.
Reposition the original without face retouching or generated facial details.
Places copies at explicit dimensions on A4 paper with spacing between them.
Distinguishes printed photo preparation from digital application requirements.
Use the two-inch square preset, then check the full US photo requirements.
Choose the thirty-five by forty-five millimeter printed size and print an actual-size sheet.
Enter dimensions supplied by the receiving organization and measure the printed output.
Yes. The US printed preset produces a 600 by 600 pixel JPEG and places photos at two by two inches on the A4 PDF.
No. Dimensions alone do not establish compliance. Expression, lighting, head positioning, background, photo age and application rules also matter.
No. The overlay is only for positioning; JPEG and PDF exports contain the cropped photo without the guide.
The UK preset is for printed photographs. Official UK digital guidance tells applicants not to crop their own photo. Follow the digital application instructions.
Download the A4 PDF and print at actual size or 100 percent scale. Disable fit-to-page and measure a printed photo.
No. The JPEG has the displayed pixel dimensions. Physical print size is established by the PDF sheet, not a guaranteed JPEG metadata tag.

Use a well-lit original with an appropriate plain background. The guide is approximate and does not measure or certify biometric compliance. This tool crops and resizes; it does not retouch faces or replace backgrounds. Printed-photo presets do not establish online application requirements. UK online applications instruct applicants not to crop their own photos.
