Strict SSC Signature Guidelines 2026
The Staff Selection Commission (SSC) is extremely strict regarding signature uploads. Thousands of applications are rejected every year simply because the signature does not meet their exact requirements.
Our free tool automatically formats your signature to match the official 140x60 pixels dimension and strict 10KB to 20KB file size limit.
Common SSC Signature Rejection Reasons:
- ALL CAPS: Signatures done entirely in block/capital letters are strictly prohibited and will lead to instant rejection. Use normal running handwriting.
- Blurry or Miniaturized Image: If you compress a large image forcibly to 10KB without proper resizing, it becomes blurry.
- Dark Background: Taking a photo in poor lighting makes the paper look grey. (Use our ‘Auto Clean Background’ feature to fix this!).
