Two steps for a clean 20KB photo

A tight 20KB limit works best when the photo is already at the correct passport dimensions. Resize first so compression does not have to strip too much detail to reach 20KB.

Honest about the result

We compress toward 20KB and show the true final size. A very large source photo may not reach 20KB while staying clear — resizing first fixes that.
