Good to know
How it gets under 100KB
Each image is saved as JPG or WebP at the highest quality that fits under 100KB. When that would mean a blocky picture, Arche scales the image down instead, a step at a time, and keeps the quality at 60 or above: a slightly smaller image is far easier to read than a blurry one. Every result shows its file size, quality and pixel size.
Where 100KB limits come up
Upload forms for jobs, schools, banks and online profiles often stop at 100 KB, and so do some forums and email signatures. At 100 KB a photo can usually stay around 1,000 pixels wide with clean detail, plenty for an ID or profile picture on screen.
Photo and signature sizes for common forms
Pick one of these under Form preset and Arche sets the size range, pixels and DPI for you. The figures come from each body's published upload instructions, checked in November 2026. They can change between notifications, so check yours before you upload.
