Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
I have spent the last 3 hours trying to submit a photo for an indian visa, aghh!! It has to be JPEG and the size is minimum 10kb maximum 1MB. I have a photo in my iphotos taken with a digital camera, how do i find out what the size is now and how do i change it to the size needed.
thanks

Crop the image to the size ratio required, i.e. square, 4:3, etc. Export the image out of your Photos library with each of these JPEG Quality settings:
Size should be full size (pixel dimensions).
Pick the resulting file that fits the file size requirements the best.
Thanks, i am using a macpro, Mojave macOS version 10.14.6 if that makes any difference. I am gonna try again tomorrow so will come on here again if i have difficulty.
thank you both.

Control-click on the photo and select Get Info. The file size will be displayed in the information box.
If it is not the correct size, select the photo and do a File/Export photo to your desktop. Open it with the Preview app on
your Mac. In the Preview menu, select Tools/Adjust size. In the box that appears there will be a dimensions box. Adjust the larger dimension to 1000 or so, and save the photo. Then do a Contol-click, Get Info, on the photo's icon and check the size. If still not in the correct range, open it again in Preview and adjust the size as necessary.

Thak you i have been trying various ways since 11 am it is now 4 30 ! tried i photo resize but i do not understand MB size am gonna try again tomorrow with your tips. Will reply to this if i still need any help.
Again thank you :)
Thank you ! i managed to resize the photo after many attempts. I am now stuck with the image of my passport. I converted it to a PDF and saved it to my desk top, it is too big, but when i click tools on preview the resize option canot be clicked it is grey ? i need the image to be 10KB-300KB.
Any help would be very appreciated
I found a way to resize using something called quartz ? On the image on my desktop it says PDF but when i uploaded it to the visa form it says "PDF only" but this time it didn't say too big ? aghhh !
Thank you all. I finally managed to do it. it is a simple operation for those who are computer literate, but it has taken me 4-6 hours in total to apply for an Indian visa.
Am i right to say that you need to resize a jpg image first, and only when that is saved convert it to a PDF ?
anyway thanks for all the help.
The photo needs to be opened in order for Tools/Adjust Size not to be grayed out.

I don't know why you would need to convert to a PDF. But if you do, I don't think that the order would make any difference. Experiment with it and see.

The visa application wanted the passport in a PDF format,
Ah. Ok.
