The JPG is 709 × 236 px with 300 DPI saved in the file, the size and resolution given in the SSC GD notice.

Frequently asked questions
What is the SSC signature size for 2026?
JPEG format, 10 to 20 KB, about 6.0 cm wide and 2.0 cm high. This is in the CGL 2026, CHSL 2026, MTS 2025 and GD 2026 notices; the GD notice adds a resolution of 300 DPI.
Do I need to upload a photo for SSC?
No. SSC captures your photo live with a webcam or phone camera during the application, so you don't upload an existing photo, and taking a picture of a printed photo leads to rejection. Use good light and a plain background, and remove any cap, mask or glasses.
One part of the notice says 4 × 2 cm. Which is right?
The CGL and CHSL 2026 notices say about 6.0 × 2.0 cm in the main instructions but about 4.0 × 2.0 cm in Annexure IV. The MTS and GD notices say 6.0 × 2.0 cm throughout, so this page uses that. For 4 × 2 cm, change the width to 472 px.
Why do SSC signatures get rejected?
The notices say blurred or very small signatures are rejected. Sign with a dark pen on white paper, sign a little larger than usual, crop close to the signature and look at the result before you download it.
Is my signature uploaded to OptiPress?
No. It's cropped, resized and saved as JPG in your browser, and it never leaves your device.
