Compress photo to 20KB
Compress photo to 20KB for very strict forms, exam portals, small ID uploads, and lightweight profile photo requirements.
Use this page when a portal asks for a photo under 20KB and you need a very small upload-ready image.
Set 20KB and compress
Upload the file, choose KB, enter 20, then download the result when compression finishes in your browser.
Match the upload wording
20KB, 20 KB, maximum 20KB, and under 20KB usually describe the same upload limit.
Choose the exact number from the form first, then use format or resize controls only when the portal still rejects the file.

Pick the closest tool
Start with the format your upload form asks for. If it accepts several formats, JPG is usually efficient for photos, PNG is useful for screenshots, and PDF is best for documents.
Questions people ask
Is 20KB too small for a photo?
20KB is very strict for a photo. It can work for small profile or ID uploads, but large detailed photos may need smaller dimensions.
Should I resize before compressing to 20KB?
Often yes. Reducing width and height first usually gives a cleaner result than forcing quality very low on a large photo.
Which format should I use?
JPG is usually the best starting point for photos. Use PNG only if the portal specifically requires it.
