The Uttar Pradesh Public Service Commission sets this file in its One Time Registration scanning guidelines (p. 1, table and items 4–8). The sentence a candidate pastes into a search box is this one: The applicant has to sign in full in the box provided.
The instruction is undated, and MiniPx checked 6 October 2026. It names no file format, and the tool makes a JPG.
A deep box, scanned at a stated resolution
The instruction states the signature as a print size, 6 cm × 3 cm, plus a scanner setting, 200 DPI in true colour. Multiplying one by the other gives the pixel size such a scan produces, about 472 × 236 pixels. That is arithmetic from the instruction, not a number it prints, so treat it as a target rather than a rule. The box is 2.0 times as wide as it is tall, so sign at your normal size inside it instead of squeezing a flat strip into the middle.
True colour rules out a black-and-white scan setting. A bilevel signature looks crisp but breaks the instruction, so leave the scanner in its colour mode and let compression handle the weight.
Under a ceiling, with no floor
The limit is less than 30 KB, a ceiling only. The instruction gives no lower figure, so a light, clean file is fine as long as the strokes stay sharp. The table says “less than”, while a numbered step in the same instruction says “not more than”; the tool reads the stricter wording, so a file at exactly the stated figure is out; the tool holds it to 29,999 bytes or fewer, which is the safe reading of a kilobyte. The photograph has its own ceiling, less than 50 KB, on the UPPSC photo page; the two files are not interchangeable.
Where UPPSC is strict about the signature
The instruction spends most of its words on the signature, and two rules end an application rather than a single upload. It must be signed in full: signed in full by the applicant — initials are not sufficient. And the signature you scan has to match the one you sign at the examination: the instruction says a mismatch with the Hall Ticket signature disqualifies the applicant.
- Sign in full, as you normally do, in the box provided.
- Scan the sheet at the stated resolution, in true colour.
- Separate the signature from the photograph; crop it here if you need to set the box yourself.
- Compress it in the tool above and upload it in the One Time Registration.
Common rejection reasons
A signature in capital letters (applies to the signature)
Signature in CAPITAL LETTERS is not permitted.

A signature that does not match the one on the Hall Ticket (applies to the signature)
If the Applicant’s signature on the answer script does not match the signature on the Hall Ticket at the time of the examination, the applicant will be disqualified.

If you are also applying to other commissions
The same candidate often fills a state commission form beside a central one. The TNPSC signature and the TGPSC signature each sit in a band with a floor that a UPPSC file can fall under. Every exam MiniPx has checked against its own notice is on the government exams hub.
The tool runs in your browser and the signature is not uploaded to MiniPx.
