Field notes

The page supports both preset workflows and short written commands, then reports the produced file’s actual type, size, page count, or dimensions before download. Its preset library reaches beyond generic compression: it includes IBPS and UPSC photo-and-signature requirements, alongside limits such as 100 KB, 200 KB, 2 MB, and 5 MB.
