Drop your AILET photograph or signature scan, get a JPEG safely under NLU Delhi’s 1 MB cap at full quality — and turn iPhone HEIC into the JPG the form accepts. Nothing is uploaded.
The AILET application (nationallawuniversitydelhi.in — AILET 2027 registration opens August 7, 2026, exam December 13) wants a recent colour, passport-size photograph on a white background and a scanned signature in black or blue pen on white paper. The university's own guidelines give exactly two file rules, and they're the same for both uploads: .jpg/.jpeg/.png format and “size of image should not be more than 1 MB”. That's it — no pixel dimensions, no minimum, no DPI. The photo must show your face clearly (about 75% of the frame), with no cap or goggles — spectacles are explicitly allowed. The signature goes on white paper inside a 6×3 cm box (width × height — wider than tall), clear and without overwriting.
One widely-read admissions site tells AILET applicants their files must be “only in jpeg format” at “15 KB – 250 KB”; another prints the classic photo 20–50 KB, signature 10–20 KB, JPG/JPEG only table — the window a different exam family (IBPS-style bank forms) enforces, pasted into AILET articles. Neither window appears anywhere on the university's site, and PNG is explicitly allowed. The real cap is 1 MB per image — twenty times the “50 KB” ceiling the recycled tables would have you crush your photo down to. This is one of the gentlest exam-upload specs in India: a normal phone photo often fits as-is, at full quality. If the live form for your cycle shows a stricter error, the portal wins — but don't pre-ruin the file for a rule that isn't there.
iPhone HEIC: the application platform's file picker accepts images by extension (jpg, jpeg, png, gif, ico) — an iPhone HEIC photo is refused before any preview appears. Drop it here: it's decoded in your browser and comes out as a JPEG the form takes. Files over 1 MB: modern phone photos are often 2–4 MB; the preset target of 950 KB is under “1 MB” in every way a computer might count it, and at that generous budget the re-encode is visually indistinguishable. Framing: no official pixel size exists, so this page presets none — but if you want a passport-shaped crop, type 420x525 into Exact size and drag the crop preview; for the signature, its 6×3 cm box is twice as wide as tall, so 600x300 is a sensible shape if your scan needs tidying. Both are suggestions, not rules.
NLU Delhi's own FAQ answer for “I uploaded a blurred photograph/signature” is: delete the application form and fill it once again. There is no edit-one-field option — and if you selected YES to BPL under SC/ST, the form cannot be deleted once submitted at all. So check both images in the preview box before submitting, and keep two identical printed copies of the photograph in reserve — the university says they may be needed for pasting on the admit card at the entrance test or counselling.
Most applicants upload nothing beyond photo and signature. The exceptions, per the official document list: a BPL certificate (SC/ST candidates claiming the fee waiver, max 2 MB), a passport copy (foreign-national category, 2 MB) and a PwD certificate (2 MB). A phone photo of a paper certificate is usually fine here — and if yours is over the cap, drop it above with a 1900kb target; if a slot wants a PDF, pick PDF as the output format and PixFit builds one at a guaranteed size, with two-sided documents merged via Combine into one PDF.
These files identify you — face, signature, and category documents tied to your application. PixFit runs entirely in your browser: nothing you drop here is uploaded to any server, and re-encoding strips EXIF metadata (including GPS) from phone photos as a side effect. There's no minimum size in the real spec, so nothing ever needs padding. The authority is the current notification and live form at nationallawuniversitydelhi.in — AILET is NLU Delhi's own exam, separate from CLAT (which covers the other NLUs and has its own upload flow). Sitting both? The specs differ — read both pages.
