How In-Browser Passport & Visa Photo Formatting Works

ZapPebble formats personal smartphone photos to comply with official government passport, visa, and ID specifications without visiting a photo studio or uploading biometric photos to unknown cloud servers. The tool uses MediaPipe face and head segmentation to frame the subject according to official biometric ratios (chin-to-crown proportion), cleans up the background to government-mandated solid colors, and tiles multiple photos onto printable 4×6" photo paper with cutting guide marks.

Practical Example: Printing 8 US Visa Photos on 4×6" Photo Paper

Smartphone Selfie Input

You snapped a portrait against a beige living room wall with a phone camera. You need a sheet of official 2×2" US Visa photos to print at a local photo kiosk for under $0.50.

Settings: Preset = US Visa (2×2 in) · Background = White · Paper = 4×6" · Copies = 6.
Automated Formatting & Print Sheet
  • The AI isolates your portrait and replaces the beige wall with clean, compliant pure white.
  • Your face is framed automatically to ensure the head occupies the mandated 50%–69% vertical space.
  • Clicking "Download Printable PDF" generates a 300 DPI 4×6" print layout complete with cutting crop lines.

Official Passport Photo Guidelines & Edge Cases

Facial Expression

Ensure you maintain a neutral facial expression with mouth closed and eyes looking directly into the camera lens. Glasses with glare or tinted lenses are prohibited by most passport authorities.

Printing at 100% Scale

When printing the exported PDF or JPEG at home or at a pharmacy photo booth, select "Actual Size" or100% scale in print settings (never "Fit to page") so physical millimeter measurements remain exact.

Biometric Privacy

Your biometric face photos are processed exclusively inside your device RAM. Photos are never uploaded to a cloud server or logged in an external database.

Frequently Asked Questions

Print the PDF at 100% or "Actual size", not "Fit to page". Photo labs can print the 4x6 in JPG directly.
