Passport Size Photo Maker – 3.5 × 4.5 cm Photos and Print Sheet

How to make passport size photos

1. Choose the photo size — 3.5 × 4.5 cm is the usual Indian passport size.
2. Add your photo and drag and zoom so your face is centred and fills most of the frame.
3. Optional: tick Add a thin white border.
4. Choose the print sheet — 4 × 6 inch photo paper or A4 — and how many photos you want on it.
5. Tap Make passport photos, then download the single photo (for online use) and the print sheet.

How it works

The tool crops your picture to the exact proportions of the chosen size and saves it at 300 DPI, the standard for photo printing:

• 3.5 × 4.5 cm at 300 DPI = 413 × 531 pixels
• 2 × 2 inch at 300 DPI = 600 × 600 pixels

It then arranges copies on the sheet with 2 mm gaps and optional light cutting guides, and saves the sheet as a 300 DPI JPG:

Because the DPI is stored in the file, printing at 100% / actual size gives correctly sized photos.

Tips for a good passport photo

• Plain light background. Stand about half a metre in front of a white or cream wall.
• Even light. Face a window in daylight; avoid harsh shadows and flash glare.
• Straight to camera. Head straight, neutral expression, both ears visible if possible, eyes open.
• No filters or beauty modes. Official photos must look like you.
• Recent photo. Most forms want a photo taken in the last few months.

Requirements differ between passports, visas, exams and ID cards — read the official instructions for your application before printing.

Printing your sheet at a photo shop

1. Download the print sheet (4 × 6 inch is the cheapest to print).
2. Send it to the shop on WhatsApp or carry it on a pen drive.
3. Ask them to print at actual size on 4 × 6 inch glossy photo paper — no resizing or cropping.
4. Cut along the light guide lines with a paper cutter or sharp scissors.

Printing a single 4 × 6 sheet usually costs much less than a studio passport photo set, and you can print more copies whenever you need them.
