How to prepare the photo

1. Take or import a clear, front-facing photo in DocFila.
2. Choose the document, and DocFila applies its photo size.
3. Zoom, move and rotate the photo to frame the face. Optionally replace the background; this uses DocFila's online photo service and asks first.
4. Export a digital photo or a print sheet.

Submission checklist

• Use even lighting with no harsh shadows.
• Keep the background plain and the face clearly visible.
• Review current Government of Canada photo rules before printing or uploading.

What DocFila helps with

DocFila crops the photo to the document's size and lays out a print sheet. It does not detect your face, expression or lighting, and it cannot tell you that an office will accept the photo, so read the issuing authority's current rules before you submit. It also keeps scanning, PDF tools and storage in the same app, so IDs, forms and supporting documents can stay together.
