Get a PDF under 100 KB for exam, job and ID upload forms. Lossless first, then stronger passes only if needed; you are told if 100 KB cannot be reached.

Compress PDF to 200KB

Make a PDF smaller than 200 KB for university, job and KYC uploads. Text stays readable for most 1–3 page documents; you see the final size before you submit.

Reduce a PDF to under 500 KB for admissions, insurance and tender portals. Multi-page scans usually stay readable at this size; lossless compression is tried first.

Compress PDF to 2MB

Compress a PDF below 2 MB for email attachments, e-filing and recruitment sites. Most files get there losslessly, with no change in quality; free, no sign-up.

Choose the PDF workflow you need

Edit a PDF or fill a form

Add text and images with the PDF editor, fill existing interactive form fields, or place a visual signature. To change the original paragraphs, convert a text-based PDF to Word and review the result.

Edit PDF Fill PDF Forms Sign PDF PDF to Word

Combine documents for an application

Extract the pages you need, merge them in the right order and inspect the combined document. Merging does not automatically reduce its size: compress the final copy when your upload form requires it.

Extract PDF Pages Merge PDF Reorder Pages Compress PDF

Meet a PDF upload size limit

Try ordinary compression first, or choose a target of 100 KB, 200 KB, 500 KB, 1 MB or 2 MB. Some scans cannot reach a small target while staying readable. Check the downloaded size and fine print before submitting.

Recover text or remove private information

Use OCR to extract words from a scan, or plain text extraction for a digital PDF. A text overlay is not redaction. Review the output and document metadata before sharing sensitive information.
