Forth coming job ope Indian Air Force has recently announced AFCAT 01/2013 notification. According to this notification, male and female candidates who want to appear for AFCAT exam should register online. After providing the procedure of filling up the online registration form of AFCAT, we thought that many of the SSB aspirants may face difficulty in uploading their passport size photograph according to the needs of IAF authorities. As per IAF, passport size photograph should be square shaped photo and the minimum pixels accepted is of 600 px height and 600 px width. And maximum pixels size can be up to 1200 px X 1200 px. And the major job is to compress the image size as AFCAT online registration form is accepting images only less than 250 Kbs size. So let us see how to adjust the photo and reduce the image size. To do this you need to have a simple MS Office installed in your PC or laptops and passport size photo in the same PC to work with. If you have both of these things, then you are ready to proceed further.
