01 / CONSTRAINT ANALYSIS
Solving Government and Institutional Form Rejections
Institutional application forms (visas, passports, civil service exams, university portals) use legacy validation engines that immediately reject modern image files. They routinely reject .HEIC files from iPhones, .WEBP files from web downloads, and any image exceeding 200 KB or 500 KB.
Bitmorfy's online form pipeline takes your raw photo in any format, decodes it locally, strips unnecessary EXIF location tags for privacy, normalizes color space to standard sRGB, and re-encodes it as a universal baseline JPEG.
The resulting file is guaranteed to be accepted by legacy web forms without trigger-happy rejection errors.

05 / FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Why do portals reject PNG or HEIC files?
Many government and bank servers were built years before HEIC and WebP existed, and only permit legacy baseline JPEG streams.
Does this strip my private GPS location?
Yes! Bitmorfy creates a clean new image canvas, stripping all embedded GPS coordinates, camera serial numbers, and personal EXIF metadata.
