How to use

  1. The tool above has selected “GATE signature” in step 1 and filled in the file size, format and dimensions in step 3.
  2. Upload your images in step 2. You can choose several at once, or drag them into the upload box.
  3. In step 4, check the result for file size, dimensions and format. If an item is invalid, change the settings in step 3 as explained below the image.
  4. Download the image. Several images are downloaded together as one ZIP file. Then upload the file to the website.

Common reasons for upload failure

  • Signature too small in the image: this tool keeps the whole image and adds white space to reach 580 × 180 pixels. Please crop the scan close to the signature before uploading it here.
  • File larger than 300 KB: some websites count 1 KB as 1000 bytes and others as 1024 bytes. This tool uses the stricter 1000 bytes, so the file is within the limit either way. If an image with many pixels is still too large at 50% quality, this tool reduces its dimensions in proportion. If you have unticked “Reduce dimensions if the file is too large”, please tick it again.
  • File smaller than 3 KB: if the original image has few pixels, it cannot reach the minimum even at the highest quality. Please use the original scan or photograph, not one forwarded through a chat app.
  • Wrong format: this website accepts only JPEG/JPG. Please choose that format in step 3. HEIC photographs from an iPhone are converted to the chosen format.
