Common Recruitment Portal Errors and How Kagazo Fixes Them
Critical failure points prevented by our automated validation engine:
TNPSC OTR Rejects Small Files
Files under 100 KB are rejected by TNPSC OTR to prevent unreadable scans. Kagazo enforces a strict 150–190 KB safe zone.
Immediate Upload Failure on OTR Portal
A file of 201 KB cannot be uploaded to the TNPSC portal. Kagazo locks an 180 KB ceiling with safety margins.
Blurred e-District Digital Signature
Over-compression breaks QR codes on Tamil Nadu e-District certificates. Kagazo preserves digital signature blocks.
Scrutiny Committee Rejecting Blurry Marksheet
Low-quality compression erases fine serial numbers. Kagazo isolates high-frequency text zones.
Frequently Asked Questions
Verified answers regarding exam portal requirements, document security, and file formatting:
Why does TNPSC require PDF files to be strictly between 100 KB and 200 KB?
TNPSC enforces both a 100 KB floor and a 200 KB ceiling to ensure that uploaded certificates are readable during document scrutiny without overwhelming server bandwidth.
How do I ensure my TNPSC PDF stays between 100 KB and 200 KB?
Kagazo automatically targets 180 KB for the TNPSC preset, ensuring your document stays comfortably above the 100 KB floor and safely below the 200 KB ceiling.
Will my community certificate digital signature and QR code scan properly?
Yes. Kagazo retains high edge contrast on e-District barcodes, QR codes, and digital signature stamps so scrutiny officers can verify authenticity.
Can I compress both the front and back sides of an SSLC marksheet into one 200 KB PDF?
Yes! Upload your 2-page PDF. The engine compresses both pages concurrently, ensuring the total combined file size stays under 200 KB.
Can I compress PSTM (Persons Studied in Tamil Medium) certificates with this tool?
Yes. PSTM certificates issued in prescribed proforma from schools and colleges can be compressed with full preservation of headmaster signatures and round seals.
Are my marksheet and personal community certificates uploaded to any server?
Never. All compression runs 100% in your local browser memory buffer. No document data is ever transmitted across the internet.
Does Kagazo add any watermark or logo to the TNPSC PDF?
No. The generated PDF is completely clean with zero watermarks, brand stamps, or modified metadata.
What should I do if my scanned marksheet is 5 MB?
Simply upload the 5 MB file. Kagazo automatically optimizes and downsamples the embedded image to bring it under the 200 KB threshold.
Does this tool work for TNPSC Group 1, Group 2, Group 4, and VAO applications?
Yes. All TNPSC recruitment examinations and OTR profile document updates follow this exact specification.
Can I compress documents directly from my smartphone?
Yes. The tool runs smoothly on Android and iOS browsers without requiring any third-party app installation.
