FileFix Guides

Practical guides for preparing images, PDFs and uploads.

Practical file-preparation guidance

Start with the destination's current official requirements, then use FileFix to match its format, pixel dimensions and file-size limit. Exact-size compression may reduce image dimensions when quality adjustment alone cannot reach a very small target.

Choose the right workflow

Use the Upload Checker before a high-stakes submission. For an image, confirm format, dimensions and maximum size. For a PDF, confirm the page count and size limit. QR codes in Version 1 are static: a QR for a PDF, image or video contains a public URL you provide and never uploads that file.

Requirements can change

Exam boards, government portals and social platforms can revise their rules. FileFix presets are working aids, so verify the current requirement on the destination's official website before submitting. This guidance was reviewed on 20 September 2026.
