Best 3x4 Photo Maker with Name and Date Online
Applying for government jobs like SSC (Staff Selection Commission), UPSC, Railway (RRB), or State Police? One of the most common reasons for form rejection is uploading an incorrect photo size. Most official Indian portals strictly demand a 3x4 cm photo or a 3.5x4.5 cm photo with the candidate's Name and Date of Photo (DOP) printed clearly at the bottom.
Our free 3x4 photo maker online tool solves this problem instantly. Without needing Photoshop, you can auto-crop your image to the exact 3:4 aspect ratio, ensuring it exports at a crisp 300 DPI (354 x 472 pixels). This ensures your photo remains high quality and is immediately accepted by government form validation systems.

10 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
1. How do I make a 3x4 photo with Name and Date?
Simply upload your photo, enter your candidate name and the date of photo (DOP) in the text boxes. Choose a plate theme (like SSC Black), adjust the crop box around your face, and click 'Generate'. The system will automatically merge the text onto the bottom of the photo.
2. What is the pixel size for a 3x4 cm photo?
For a high-quality print and official upload, a 3x4 cm photo at 300 DPI translates exactly to 354 pixels in width and 472 pixels in height. Our tool strictly exports your final image at this exact resolution to prevent form rejection.
3. Is this tool safe for uploading my personal photos?
100% Safe. OnlineSuru uses client-side JavaScript technologies (Cropper.js and HTML Canvas) to edit your photo. Your image never leaves your mobile or computer, and it is never saved on our database.
4. Which plate style should I use for SSC or UPSC?
Most SSC and UPSC notifications require the date of photo to be clearly printed at the bottom. We recommend using the 'SSC Black' (Black background, White text) or 'UPSC White' (White background, Black text) theme, as they are the most universally accepted formats.
5. Can I download the generated photo in High Quality?
Yes. Once you click "Download HD Image", the tool exports the image in the highest JPEG quality format (1.0 Quality Ratio). The image will be sharp, clear, and perfectly readable even when zoomed in by portal verifiers.
6. How can I fix the file size if it's too large for the portal?
Our tool exports at maximum quality, which might result in a file size around 50KB - 150KB. If the government portal requires a file under 50KB, you can use our "Image Resizer" tool from the sidebar to compress the final downloaded image without losing the dimensions.
7. Does this photo maker work on mobile phones?
Absolutely! The OnlineSuru 3x4 Photo Maker is fully responsive. You can easily select photos directly from your phone's gallery or camera, crop them, and download the final result directly to your mobile device.
8. Can I remove the background of my photo here?
While this specific tool focuses on cropping and adding the Name/Date plate, you can use our dedicated "Remove BG" tool (linked in the sidebar) to instantly make your background white or blue before uploading it here.
9. What if I make a mistake in the name or date?
There is no need to re-upload! Simply click the "Edit Again" button below your generated photo, correct the spelling or date in the input boxes, and click "Generate" again. It takes less than 2 seconds to fix.
10. How do I print the generated 3x4 photos?
Download the HD JPEG image to your device. You can then insert this image into MS Word, or use our main "Passport Photo Maker" tool to automatically arrange multiple copies onto a standard A4 or 4x6 sheet for easy studio printing.
