Choose the original
Use the camera file or the best copy you have. The tool reads its format and displayed dimensions before you export anything.

The right dimensions.

A better fit. The same proportions.
Adjust the pixels, keep the full picture. Compare both versions before you download.

Resize a photo in three steps.
Set the longest side
For a square original, choosing 600 gives 600 × 600 pixels. For a 900 × 1200 portrait, it gives 450 × 600. Nothing is stretched to make it square.
Compare and download
Create a JPEG, inspect the original beside the copy and download it without signing in. Check the final file against the instructions for your application.
Resizing is different from cropping.
Understand 2 × 2 inches and 600 × 600 pixelsResizing changes the number of pixels used to describe the same scene. Cropping removes part of the scene. If a portrait is too narrow for a square passport crop, changing its width and height independently makes the face wider. This tool keeps the proportions locked, with possible one-pixel rounding.
For an already framed square, a 600-pixel longest side produces a 600 × 600 file. For a photo that still needs its head position and margins set, start with document-specific preparation instead. A square file alone does not establish the right framing.
A JPEG copy you can inspect.
Export a HEIC photo on your deviceThe export uses JPEG, including when you start with PNG or WebP. A new .jpg filename reflects an actual format conversion. Renaming the original extension would not do that. The tool does not apply a beauty filter, reshape a face or replace a background.
JPEG is lossy, so compare detail after exporting. A highly compressed original can be smaller than the new copy. PNG and WebP files with transparency are declined because JPEG cannot preserve transparent pixels. HEIC must be exported as JPEG on your device first.
Keep a full-resolution original.
Print at the correct physical sizeWork on a copy each time. If you resize a small copy again and again, you cannot recover the detail that was discarded in earlier exports. This tool refuses enlargement and leaves your source file in place.
Printed dimensions depend on the output pixel count and the printer settings. A 600 × 600 file printed at 300 pixels per inch measures two inches on each side. Downloading it does not instruct every printer to use that size, so check the print dialogue and measure a test print.
WHEN YOUR PHOTO NEEDS MORE
Prepare the photo for the document.
A file tool handles pixels and bytes. Merodim’s photo preparation flow helps with document-specific framing and provides digital files and print layouts.
For a US passport, preview your photo before buying the finished file for $9.99 or four prints with a digital copy for $19.99. For another application, check its requirements and supported preparation route first.
Photo resizing questions.
Can I make a 600 × 600 photo for free?
Yes, if your original is square and at least 600 × 600 pixels. Choose 600 as the longest side. A rectangular original keeps its proportions and will not become square. Use the document preparation flow when you need a new crop.
Can I convert PNG or WebP to JPG?
Yes, for an opaque image. Choose a longest side equal to the original to keep its dimensions, up to 4,096 pixels, then export the JPEG. Transparent images need a different workflow because JPEG has no transparency.
Does it set the file size to 200 KB or 240 KB?
No. This tool controls pixels. The separate photo compressor controls a maximum KB target while keeping the dimensions unchanged.
Does resizing make a photo acceptable for a passport?
No. The file still needs the correct subject, framing, background and other requirements for its application. Some portals ask for an original photo and handle positioning themselves.
