FAQ
The US State Department photo tool wants 600 × 600 to 1200 × 1200 px.
The 2 × 2 in preset at 300 dpi gives exactly 600 × 600 px. For a larger file pick "Custom (pixels)" and enter 1200 × 1200.
The file is too large for the upload form.
Enter the limit in "Max file size". The JPG quality is reduced automatically until the file fits.
